The 2" Night Sky Hydrogen-Alpha Filter by Lumicon is intended for deep sky astrophotography only.


WARNING: DO NOT USE FOR SOLAR OBSERVATION, EYE DAMAGE MAY OCCUR.

The Lumicon Night-Sky H-Alpha Filter is a powerful photographic aid in overcoming light pollution during deep-sky photography. It will greatly reduce light pollution, making it ideal for photography of faint emission nebulae. Exposures may be increased up to 10 times without diminishing the black background in your photograph, thus achieving strikingly improved results in black & white film and CCD astrophotography. Both filter surfaces have high light transmittance coatings for maximum performance.


To ensure that your Lumicon filter remains the World's Best, the strictest quality control standards are employed throughout the production process. Each Lumicon Filter is individually inspected for maximum quality assurance.

Elizabeth ★★★★★

That faint red glow from Orion's nebula popped right out in my subs last week, and the 2" size fit my astrocam adapter without any spacers needed. It's strictly for deep sky work, so I keep it labeled to avoid any mix-up with solar viewing, and the narrow band really killed the city light pollution.

Ella ★★★★★

Finally got a clear night to test this on the Orion Nebula and the contrast on the hydrogen-alpha emission lines is incredible, really bringing out the faint dust lanes. It threaded smoothly into my focuser and feels solidly built.

Matthew A. ★★★★★

Swapped out my old broadband filter for this one and the difference in contrast on the Orion Nebula was immediately obvious in my first 10-minute sub. The narrow 12nm bandpass really cuts through light pollution to bring out those faint hydrogen clouds.
