Hi Daniel,

I can't comment on the filters - other than I plan on getting one to cut out the light pollution too.

200 stars - to the naked eye it's the same here around Chatswood most nights but there have plenty of nights (6 months into Astronomy) that I have actually been able to see the odd cluster naked eye style. On these nights I believe there would be thousands visible.

Through my 4.5 inch cat newt and lately the new 8 inch Newt the star count would surely be in the 10's of thousands!
