Hi Stephane



I am looking into filters for the same purpose as well.


As I understand it, the UV/IR may be required (mainly to filter out IR that you don't want). If you are using a refractor, that will come to focus at a different point. Other filters may also remove the IR.



A UV/IR will not help with light pollution.


I think a broadband filter is more like theOptolong L-Pro. I am not recommending this, as I am currently far too ignorant about filters.


I will be doing some reading soon, and am looking forward to the answers others give.


Philip
