Astronomik EOS CLS Clip on filter.

[toryglen-boy (Duncan)]

Just ordered one of these LPR filters, clips onto the front of my 1000D, anyone used them, or got any opinions of Astronomik filters?

thanks

I have the Astronmoik EOS CLS CCD clip, works very well when it is actually dark. Under moon light or low light level conditions, it tends to give a blue cast to all images if not used properly, camera adjustments, etc. Have done 15 mins under dark skies with good results. I think it is a good filter.
I also have narrow band filters for my DSI Pro 2 and EFW from Astronomik and they are fine, too.

I had one a while ago and found it a lot easier to colour balance the images using a custom white balance in the camera. Get yourself an EF lens and shoot a daytime shot of a white sheet of paper under sunlight with the filter in. Protect that image on the card and set it as the custom white balance when imaging with the filter.
