Filters for Astrophotography
With modern interference filters, amateur astronomers can now achieve excellent image results. The applications include narrow-band emission line filters, broader-band color filters and filters for suppressing artificial light emission.
CCD Filter for Astrophotography
The new TriBand V2 Filter
- Anti-Halo coating on both surfaces to reduce reflection artefacts from reducers and camera lenses.
- Increased blocking of UV, IR and unwanted visual range wavelengths. UV OD7 (T0.00001%) Visual OD5 (T0.001%) and IR OD4 (T0.01%) for the ultimate in skyglow blocking. This is an order of magnitude better than foreign filters.
- Higher transmission % of desired wavelengths Ttop 93% (Average 5% higher transmission of target wavelengths than V1). In general a 5% gain on foreign filters.
- Ha at 14nm and Oiii at 34nm FWHM for with less tail-off to reduce unwanted light pollution, whilst keeping transmission high compared to the V1.

This is the filter for imaging in moonlight or light pollution with a colour CMOS camera - or even in dark-sky conditions if you want total isolation and control over your channels, narrowband-style.
Altair DualBand 6nm Filter Features:
- Capture the two main emission nebulae bands at the same time, whilst suppressing light pollution, moonlight, and airglow.
- Acquire more data in less time, opening up your imaging window, even into the summer months when it isn't quite dark.
- If you have the 6nm Ha/Sii Ultra filter and the Sii/Ha version, you can capture twice the Oiii data in each imaging session and combine them for true SHO Hubble style imaging with a colour camera!
- Extremely steep bandpass yields maximum contrast in extreme light pollution: 6nm FHWM centred on 500.7nm Oiii wavelength, and 5.5nm FHWM centred on the 656.28nm Ha wavelength.

Altair Astro Premium 1.25" CLS-CCD Filter features:
- Multi-Layer Anti-Reflection coating to reduce star-halos and reflections from camera optical window.
- Batch-tested for consistency.
- Ultra-flat glass by Schott Germany. 1.85mm Glass 30sec parallel, optical polish to MIL Spec. MIL-O-13830.
- High quality dichroic/dielectric coatings. Electron-beam gun evaporation with Ion-assisted deposition coating technology for durability and resistance to scratching, as well as stability on CWL (central wavelength). No deviation affected by temperature change.
- UV/IR block for imaging - star bloat reduction with refractors.
- Precision CNC machined filter cell for strain-free mounting and freedom from tilt.
