1.25in. LRGB Astrophotography Filter Set
- Create dazzling three-step RGB astrophotos - just like the pros
- Works with the Orion Orion StarShoot Deep Space CCD Monochrome Imager II and Manual 5-Filter Wheel
- Combining separate images taken through these filters produces finer resolution and amazing color
- Red, blue, and green filters plus the haze-eliminating Luminance filter give you stunning results
- All filters in the set block ultraviolet (UV) and infrared (IR) wavelengths for higher contrast CCD images
Take your astrophotography to the next level with this set of 1.25" Luminance (IR cutoff), Red, Green, and Blue telescope filters. They're designed for creating high-quality composite color astrophotos with Orion monochrome imaging cameras or similar monochrome cameras. Combining separate images taken through these four filters with a monochrome CCD provides a higher-resolution final image than an image from a comparably sized color CCD. Our LRGB set features dichroic glass filters designed for maximum transmission. The color filters have an IR-blocking coating, and all filters are parfocal to eliminate the need for refocusing between exposure sets. Their anodized aluminum cells thread into the Orion multiple and motorized filter wheels for convenient filter selection. Foam-lined telescope filter case included.

1.25in. LRGB Astrophotography Filter Set
Reviewer: ANJAL SHARMA
This LRGB imaging filter set is
excellent for the price. I've taken
transmission spectra of the filters with
a research grade spectrophotometer and
the published spectra are identical to
what I obtained. One caveat, these
aren't *exactly* parfocal. A slight
amount of refocusing is required when
switching between them. These work
well with both my DSI Pro and my ATIK
16HR. Color balance is a bit skewed
towards green and I had to play around
with color weights to get natural color.
Overall however, you can't find a better
set for the price. These are no doubt
two steps up from the Meade LRGB filter
set for not a whole lot more. Buy them.
You'll be glad you did.

Hi all for the price these filters they are
the best. They are IR coated that means
all the filters have a IR coating on them
not only the IR/UV Luminance
Filter. (Read it on this months Orion¿s
catalog) I have these running on a Sbig
ST-7 and have no problems at all. The
best thing about them is the price
$200.00 not $500.00.
