Study the Sun safely with this combination of E-Series Solar Filters and the popular Orion UltraView 10x50 binocular. With the white-light solar filters installed, this combo lets you safely explore the Sun at 10x magnification to see sunspots other solar phenomena. When you don't want to look at the Sun, just remove the E-Series Solar Filters from the 10x50 binocular and use it without filters to explore daytime vistas and starry skies.

50mm Bino Solar Filters

2.54" ID Set of Orion E-Series Solar Filters for Binoculars

Once installed on 50mm binoculars, these E-Series Solar Filters display the Sun in a pleasing, natural yellow-orange color unlike the unnatural blue shade cast by some other types of filters. The yellow-orange image of the Sun yields high levels of contrast and clarity for sharp solar views. The lightweight solar filter housings feature an inside diameter (ID) of 2.54", which means they fit binoculars whose objective lens barrels have an outer diameter between 2.38"-2.5" (60.3mm-63.5mm). Their 2.54" inside diameter makes these solar filters a perfect fit when installed on Orion 10x50 binoculars.
