Apertura ND96-0.6 Neutral Density Filter - 1.25"
Bring Out the Fine Detail Behind Bright Objects!
Increase the detail of bright objects in your eyepiece with this ND filter! With a 25% transmission in an 1.25" threaded cell, giving your visual accessories some shade is simple task; so give your gear a quick and effective upgrade with the Apertura ND96-0.6 Neutral Density Filter - 1.25" and reveal the faint details of some the night's brightest object!
If you've ever viewed the full Moon through a telescope, you'll be familiar with its incredible brightness. While its brilliance is awe-inspiring in itself, it can overpower your eyepiece and conceal some of the splendor of its surface. Other objects, like Venus and double stars, can also veil some of their features behind their powerful shine. The Apertura ND96-0.6 Neutral Density Filter helps tame the powerful light from these celestial objects, reducing the light through your eyepiece by 75%. This provides a "sunglasses-like" effect, bringing forward details previously washed out in the incredible illumination! This filter enhances your view without changing the colors passing through your eyepiece. It installs simply, with an 1.25" filter cell that can be threaded on to the front of many eyepieces, diagonals, and Barlows, and then installed directly into your 1.25" focuser.
Effectively Reduce the Illumination Through Your Eyepiece!
The Apertura ND96-0.6 Neutral Density Filter - 1.25" provides a strong illumination blocking effect for your visual observations, helping illuminate fainter details on bright objects by simply attaching this to your 1.25" observing equipment!
Neutral Density Filtering
With a neutral density
filter design, this visual add-on reduces incoming light to just 25% of its
original brightness without adding the tint present in some similar filters.
This will enhance your lunar observations, revealing fainter details in the
seas, craters, and peaks, especially in brighter phases of the Moon. Shading
your view can also benefit your observations of some other celestial
objects; by taming the twinkle of double stars to assist with splitting
them, and reducing Venus' radiance to help bring some of the faint detail
visible in its atmosphere some a bit more to the forefront. This effective
and easy to use filtering makes the Apertura ND96-0.6 Neutral Density Filter
an excellent addition to your visual accessory toolkit!
