My advice is if you are going to buy one then go all the way and don't cut any corners on quality etc. I have an Astronomik CLS and it turns the back-ground sky from a bright grey hue to a very dark grey. Sadly, the concept or sight of a black sky is something foreign to me other than on depictions I see in photos/television etc
+1 for the Astronomik CLS in suburban skies here too. Best filter in my box.
