Features:
– Suitable for visual observation on most emission nebulae, planetary nebulae and supernova remnants
– Suitable for viewing on bright nebulae like M42 Orion Nebula in heavy light pollution
– Use with a large aperture telescope under clear and dark viewing conditions with good seeing
– Narrowband filter do not eliminate the effects of light pollution or increase the object’s brightness. In many cases, they increase the contrast between nebula and night sky, not brightening the nebula.
