I recently tried out my new Astronomiks UHC filter and am very impressed. I winced at the price a bit but after one session I'm convinced of the quality. I viewed th Helix which I'd not been able to see without the filter. The Lagoon, Eta Carina and the Trifid all looked much improved even on the poor seeing night that it was. I can't wait for a clearer night to really get a better view. I wish I had about $500 for a 2" UHC filter for my 30mm Superview.
