Askar Flattener 1.0x 103APO (86169)
252.01 $
Tax included
A field flattener is an optical lens designed to correct the slight curvature of the image field produced by a telescope’s primary optics. This natural curvature causes stars near the edges of the field of view to appear less sharp. By correcting this effect, the flattener ensures that stars remain sharp and well-defined across the entire image, from center to edge.
Askar Flattener 1.0x 120APO (88205)
261.17 $
Tax included
A field flattener is an optical element designed to correct the slight curvature of the image field produced by a telescope’s primary optics. This natural curvature causes stars near the edges of the image to appear softer or out of focus. By compensating for this effect, the flattener ensures that stars remain sharp and well-defined across the entire field of view, from the center to the edges of the frame.
Askar Flattener 1.0x 160 f/7 (87467)
451.33 $
Tax included
A field flattener is an optical lens designed to correct the slight curvature of the image field produced by a telescope’s primary optics. This inherent curvature causes stars near the edges of the field of view to appear less sharp. By compensating for this effect, the flattener ensures that stars remain sharp and well-defined across the entire image, from the center to the outer edges of the frame.
Askar Reducer 0.8x 120APO (88179)
261.17 $
Tax included
A focal reducer shortens the effective focal length of a telescope, making the optical system faster for astrophotography. This results in a brighter image and a wider field of view, allowing larger areas of the sky to be captured in a single exposure.
Astronomik Filters H-alpha 12nm MaxFR XT Clip Nikon Z XL (88411)
471.95 $
Tax included
Astronomik XT filters for wide-angle optics are designed to deliver sharp, well-defined stars right into the corners of the image, even with extreme wide-angle lenses. With standard Astronomik filters, image quality at very short focal lengths can be limited. Although these filters use a glass substrate only one millimetre thick, certain wide-angle lenses can still introduce aberrations, causing stars near the edges of the frame to stretch into short lines.
Baader Filters D-ERF energy protection filter 290 mm (87870)
5315.17 $
Tax included
Plano-parallel round optical discs with both surfaces precision-polished to lambda/10 accuracy ensure excellent optical quality. An advanced infrared anti-reflection coating, based on a multi-layer dielectric interference system, prevents excessive heat from entering the telescope’s optical tube assembly. The plano-parallel D-ERF (Energy Rejection Filter) effectively blocks infrared radiation, even during extended observing sessions.
DayStar Solar filters QUARK Gemini Combo H-Alpha (87882)
2886.68 $
Tax included
The DayStar Quark Gemini combines both Prominence and Chromosphere bandpass filters in a single unit, allowing instant switching between the two views using a simple slide mechanism. Observers can now enjoy the strengths of both bandpasses in one easy-to-use tool, with no need to change equipment or refocus. By sliding the control arm side to side—much like during an eye exam—you can transition from the broader bandpass view, which highlights large, dramatic solar prominences, to the narrower bandpass view, delivering high-contrast detail of chromospheric features.

550 $
Tax included
The DWARF mini sets a new benchmark for portability in the world of smart telescopes. With a weight of just 840 grams, it is currently the lightest model in its class, while still delivering the convenience and performance expected from a modern, intelligent telescope. Compact, powerful, and intuitive, it is designed to make astronomy accessible almost anywhere. Within minutes, the DWARF mini is ready to explore the night sky. It automatically calibrates itself, locates selected celestial objects, and keeps them precisely centered.
Hotech 2" SCA field flattener (22937)
280.11 $
Tax included
Refractor telescopes often produce optical errors toward the edge of the image field. This leads to field curvature, where stars near the edges appear blurred, distorted, or out of focus. Such curvature reduces image quality and is especially undesirable in astrophotography, where visual aesthetics and pinpoint stars matter. The Hotech Field Flattener offers a simple and effective solution to this common issue. Achieving sharp stars right to the corners of the image is possible with the Hotech Field Flattener—and it is remarkably easy to use.
IDAS Filters NGS1 2" (62321)
230.92 $
Tax included
IDAS Night Glow & LPS Filters improve the contrast of astronomical emission nebulae against skies affected by both artificial and natural sky glow, while maintaining accurate color balance for broadband objects such as galaxies. Like other IDAS interference filters, the bandpass design accommodates the steep light angles produced by fast optical systems.
iOptron Filters OIII 1.25" (87504)
221.78 $
Tax included
This narrowband line filter is designed for astrophotography, specifically to enhance the visibility of emission nebulae by isolating key oxygen emission lines. By suppressing unwanted background light, it increases contrast and reveals fine structural details in nebulae. The filter is optimized for imaging rather than visual observing and is best suited for deep-sky photography under light-polluted or dark-sky conditions.
iOptron Filters SII 1,25" (87502)
221.78 $
Tax included
The SII narrowband filter is designed for nebula astrophotography and transmits light centered at a wavelength of 672 nm. With a narrow bandpass, it enhances contrast and isolates sulfur emission, making it well suited for imaging emission nebulae, planetary nebulae, and supernova remnants. For astrophotographers seeking the classic Hubble Space Telescope–style appearance, such as the iconic “Pillars of Creation” in the Eagle Nebula (Messier 16), the SII filter is a natural addition after H-alpha and OIII filters. Like H-alpha, SII operates in the deep red region of the spectrum near 672 nm.

Omegon Filters Pro Veil H-Alpha OIII 7nm 2'' (82000)
229.5 $
Tax included
Artificial lighting from cities and towns brightens the night sky and reduces contrast, making faint celestial objects harder to observe. While streetlights improve visibility on the ground, they create skyglow that obscures delicate deep-sky structures. Emission nebulae differ from star clusters, galaxies and reflection nebulae because they radiate light at very specific wavelengths. Instead of producing a broad spectrum, they emit distinct spectral lines.
Omegon Filters Pro Veil OIII 3nm 2'' (82014)
315.84 $
Tax included
Artificial lighting in urban and suburban areas brightens the night sky and reduces contrast, making faint deep-sky objects more difficult to observe. Skyglow caused by streetlights and industrial lighting often overwhelms delicate nebular structures. Unlike galaxies, globular clusters or reflection nebulae, emission nebulae radiate light at specific wavelengths. Because the human eye has limited sensitivity in the red spectrum, only the O-III and H-Beta lines are easily visible visually. Cameras, however, can record all these wavelengths, including the deeper red emissions.
Omegon Filters Pro Veil H-Alpha 3nm 2'' (82012)
315.84 $
Tax included
Artificial lighting in urban and suburban areas brightens the night sky and reduces contrast, causing faint celestial objects to fade into the background. While streetlights improve visibility on the ground, they create skyglow that makes observing delicate nebular structures more challenging. Emission nebulae differ from galaxies, globular clusters and reflection nebulae because they emit light at specific wavelengths rather than across a broad spectrum.
