Baader H-alpha CCD Narrowband Filter 7 nm
Narrowband H-alpha filters are very often used for astrophotography. They provide very good contrast when photographing diffuse nebulae which emit H-alpha light, like the North America Nebula. The Baader H-alpha filter blocks the entire visible light, except a small passage in the red H-alpha light. This offers some advantages: The entire stray light of cities is hidden, so beautiful photographs are possible even close to a city. Star images from refractor telescopes are significantly improved, the stars become sharper. Combined with Baader O-III and S-II CCD narrowband filters, exciting false color images are possible.
Baader narrowband filters - application areas:
These filters have revolutionised astrophotography. It is possible to record very dim nebulae even for small telescopes. In this case only light of the nebula is transmitted and unwanted light is blocked. The gain in contrast is enormous.
Colour fringes from the telescope (chromatic aberration) are also reduced significantly or even eliminated completely. The stars are much smaller and seem almost like punched.
These properties are achieved by a complex filter design. Baader filters are manufactured according to professional standards and provide adequate performance. Maximal contrast through steep edges. Dual cavity design for focal ratio f/3 to f/10 Best sharpness through plane-parallel surfaces. Resistant to aging through optimal sealing also at the edge.

"My experiences with the 7nm Baader filter have been fantastic. The filter is of very high quality, as are all the Baader filters and accessories. The ST-8 came with the 3nm CS filter which I used for a few months with good results. I started using the 7nm Baader after a friend of mine recommended I give it a try. He has been using one with his ST-10. The coatings appear to be quite good. I´ve experienced minimal reflections on brighter stars. The price is also very reasonable."

"Gute Ergebnisse auch an einer DSLR erreichbar (1200s). Nichts für Anfänger in der digitalen Bildverarbeitung. Produktqualität sehr gut."

"Funktioniert. Mehr kann ich noch nicht sagen, denn das Wetter war mir in den letzten Tagen nicht zugeneigt."

"Der Filter ermöglicht eine kontrastreiche Auflösung von H-Alpha Gebieten bei der Astrofotografie unter Einfluss der zunehmenden Stadthelligkeit."
