Fringe Killer/Semi-Apo filter or similar (2")

Have ordered a 127mm f/6.5 achromat and am looking for a filter to reduce false colour and improve contrast. Was after the Baader Contrast Booster but have read its effect is a bit too strong.

Looking for a 2" model so I can stick it on my diagonal and not worry about it when changing eyepieces.

Thanks

Morton

Similar to VR-1 but "better" if you believe the advertising!
