The 1.25" Night Sky Hydrogen-Alpha Filter 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.

Leo B. ★★★★★

The nebula details in my first test image were sharper than anything I've gotten before, and the narrowband filter really cuts through local light pollution. It's a pain to refocus each time I swap it in, but the results are absolutely worth the extra effort.

Chloe N. ★★★★★

I was blown away by the contrast this filter added to the California Nebula—nebulosity that was invisible before suddenly popped right out. The 12nm bandwidth really cuts through light pollution without losing too much signal, which is exactly what I needed for my suburban backyard. It even threaded

Stella ★★★★★

First light with this filter on the Veil Nebula was incredible – the contrast on the faint hydrogen clouds was way better than my old broadband filter. I can already see details in my test frames that were invisible before. The build feels solid in the 1.25" barrel, too.
