Player One S-Series 1.25 inch Photosphere 10nm Filter

SKU: PS125

Category: Filter and Wheel

Description:

The Player One S-Series 1.25 inch Photosphere 10nm Filter utilizes high-quality optical glass substrate and multi-layer composite coating technology, ensuring excellent optical performance for astrophotography.

The Photosphere filter is an assistant filter used in solar photosphere imaging. To adequately reduce sunlight, it is recommended to use a Baader film or Herschel wedge with this filter for imaging. The Photosphere filter is a narrowband filter with a center wavelength (CWL) of 540nm and a bandwidth of 10nm.

Why use a Photosphere filter? When capturing solar photosphere images, using a Herschel wedge alone or adding an IR685 filter may not provide the best results. The Photosphere filter allows you to capture the best detail and contrast at approximately 540nm. With the Photosphere 10nm filter, you can achieve impressive solar granulation and capture detailed sunspot features.

It is recommended to set up your Photosphere filter on a T-mount to optimize performance and protect against dust particles on the camera glass.
