I really wouldn't consider filters with that small apeture. Filters block the light making the image dimmer and obviously coloured.
Apart from a variable polarising filter I occasionally use to show others the Moon (some people complain it is too bright) I don't find much use for them visually.
Until I started getting into webcam planetary photography, my filters spent years in thier box. I have been getting some mileage out of the red filter when imaging Mars lately. That's about it.
I so wish I had the $1000 I've spent on filters in the bank right now. Would really help with the EQ6 purchase.
