Hi,

This is an excellent filter for visual use on a large number of nebula. I have one amongst several others including 2" Astronomiks UHC, OIII and H-Beta. It is the most "versatile" of all my DSO filters.

Cheers,
John B

G'day Trevor,

Have only just started using mine, bought from Iceman a week ago. Stunning! My first test was on the Rosette Nebula and it was just great. Like John I'm not an imager, so can't help there.

Cheers
Chris

Cheers Chris, well if they work so well for visual they'd work well for imaging as well one hopes. Fingers crossed $270 shipped from the US just brought one based on the reviews etc

If it doesn't work for imaging I should be able to sell it in IIS Traders as it would appear they are great for visual.

If a 2"er, it'll go immediately on trade! I begged and couldn't get anyone to part with theirs. So bought over a year ago (for a much lower price at that time!)

Erik 2" it is for imaging

I recently priced an Astronomik LP Clip filter from a local supplier $289 plus postage

Cheers

Very good filter! Best allrounder for me from OIII, UHC, etc.
