About the Astronomik MaxFR 2" OIII 6 nm CCD Filter
This Astronomik MaxFR 2" Round Mounted OIII 6 nm CCD Filter is the optimal narrowband filter for CCD astrophotography. With a 6 nm FWHM, this parfocal filter is ideal for standard CCD cameras, allowing very fast optics to be employed. Using this filter guarantees 88% transmission or more at OIII (501 nm). This filter is made to Astronomik's exacting standards. While transmission ratings may vary between each filter, you are guaranteed a transmission rating greater than 88%, with a typical transmission rating of around 92-95% for the 6 nm OIII. The specific T-Max will be listed on the filter case. You can rest easy knowing that every unit is thoroughly tested and guaranteed to meet Astronomik's stellar benchmark of performance!
About the Astronomik MaxFR Filter Line
This high-quality line of astrophotography filters uses a built-in MFR coating technique to produce the best out-of-band blocking possible, from the ultraviolet to the infrared. The MaxFR filter line by Astronomik is manufactured using an entirely new process specifically designed for fast optical systems and focal ratios. This results in extremely high contrast with no haloing!
Please note this filter must NEVER be used for solar observing or imaging. Doing so will cause permanent damage to your eyes.
