Filters for planets

Hi Guys,

Looking to place an order tomorrow for a filter to help with the planets and my toucam.

http://www.telescopes-astronomy.com....am_philips.htm

lists a baader ir/uv. I am swinging this way.

THere are some examples of filter work here

Would the baader be useful on all the planets ie venus, mars, jupiter, saturn???

There also mention some inexpensiive ones at around $60.

Also, can you use a baader in the 1.25" adapter and also say red for mars in the barlow??? Is this useful??

Thanks guys
