Explore Scientific Filters DarkSky filter, 77mm (55638)

This filter is specifically designed to enhance contrast during aurora and deep-sky photography. It is also highly effective in nature and macro photography, where it accentuates red and brown tones, such as dawn colors, sunsets, and autumn foliage, making them better differentiated.

• Reduces light pollution from streetlights and other sources.

• Blocks yellow light, a significant advantage that cannot be replicated during post-production on a computer.

• Made from special optical glass with neodymium oxide for superior performance.

The filter is ideal for wide-angle images of the Milky Way and the night sky using photographic lenses. Unlike traditional interference filters like CLS or UHC, which require perpendicular light and must be mounted between the lens and camera for wide-angle shots, this filter can be placed directly on the front of wide-angle lenses.
