OK.... make it $70 + postage

Really? No-one looking for all these mint condition filters at this price?

more details on the contrast booster:


Properties:

• Eliminates the color error of economy refractors

• Clearly puts the real quality of the lens on display

• Removes the bluish "hue" (which equals lack of contrast) during lunar, planetary, solar (with appropriate solar filter) and terrestrial observation!

• Strongly emphasizes surface detail on Jupiter and Mars! If you have never seen the GRS (Great Red Spot) on Jupiter - with this filter, you will!

• Over 95% transmission - provides a bright, brilliant image compared to the usual dark green color filters used to bring out detail on Jupiter. Color recognition will be retained!

• The ultimate in lunar filters! - Moon (and Sun!) appear much more natural in color (with a slight yellowish tint) compared to the usual low-priced dark green moon filters usually offered with beginner's telescopes.

• Completely removes distracting false color and the resulting smeared and washed out image details. You have never ever seen the Moon so tack sharp in an economy-priced telescope!

• Blocks atmospheric "stray light" (skyglow). Sky-background turns into pitch black!

• Fits each and every standard filter thread

• Combines with the (planoptically polished) Baader Infrared Cut-Filter. In this combination all blue scatter as well as unfocused near infrared light is completely removed - an absolute Must for digital imaging!

• Planoptically polished, suitable for being used in front of a binocular viewer, or for afocal image projection during digital imaging (way in front of the focal plane!)

• No deterioration of resolution with magnifications of 150x and more as with "raw polished" (flame polished) glass!

• Substrate (glass melt): Neodymium doped glass

• Coating / rear face: 7-layer hard-multicoating, featuring 0,2% reflection

• Coating / front face: 23-layer dielectric long pass blocker Ionbeam hardened coatings on both faces.

• Absolutely scratch resistant - may be cleaned any time without fear.
