David,
Where did you get the idea the film gives a bluish view? I use Baader film.
Which gives a coloured view the same as the sun pic on the left of this page.
I made my own filter from the above mentioned film and have had it for a
1 and a half years it works a treat! still I do look after it and it has it's own
cover. I went halves in a sheet that cost $45.00 a couple of hours to make.
So it cost me $22.50 plus a couple of hours labour, pretty cheap really considering
it would cost at last look $210.00 for a glass one for my 8" newt.
Still even though I keep it well protected I still check for any holes before
I place it on the scope. I use it along with my PST
