Baader Filters H-alpha/OIII/SII CMOS f/3 Ultra-Highspeed 50x50mm (75596)

The H-alpha filter transmits light at a wavelength of 656 nm, making it the best choice for narrowband astrophotography. It delivers high-contrast imaging and reveals rich details of nebulae, even in areas with significant light pollution.

The OIII filter is a narrowband filter with a 3 nm bandwidth centered on a wavelength of 500 nm. It is specifically designed for nebula observation by isolating OIII emission lines while blocking all other light, ensuring sharp and detailed images.

The SII filter is a narrowband filter that passes light at a wavelength of 672 nm with a bandpass of 3 nm. It is ideal for capturing emission nebulae, planetary nebulae, and supernova remnants.

If you want to achieve the appearance of Hubble Space Telescope (HST) images, such as the famous "Pillars of Creation" in the Eagle Nebula (Messier 16), the SII filter is an excellent addition to your setup after H-alpha and OIII filters. Together, H-alpha, OIII, and SII filters enable tri-color narrowband imaging, creating the iconic "Hubble look." These filters also allow imaging during moonlit nights, ensuring your equipment remains active even when the moon is visible.
