see http://www.astrosurf.com/buil/filter...#Lumicon%20UHC
and http://www.lumicon.com/images/2.htm and http://www.lumicon.com/images/1.htm .

Astronomik UHC passes more Ha than Lumicon Ha .
Lumicon DSF looks superior to both if you want Ha too.

Want to cut Hg emission bands at 405, 436, 546 and 579 nm
and airglow at 558 nm ,
and Na emission bands at 570, 583 ,600 and 617 nm. Lumicon Deep Sky Filter fits the bill and still passes broad bands.

I wonder how the Hutech drop LPFs compare ? append ... http://www.sciencecenter.net/hutech/idas/filtdata.htm . Looks like these pass a bit of Na 570 and 600 nm and airglow 558 nm.
