pqloapq Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 Hey strangers, been a loooong time since I was here. Having another young n, moving house and working 3 shifts, means astronomy has taken a backseat. However,im desperate to dust off the scope and get out again but the new house is horrible for LP. I know i'll just be dissapointed when I do get back out, so i'm looking for a good but cheap LP filter. Can someone please point me in the rite direction? Ty for any help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

celkins Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 Just not as effective... IMHOIn my opinion, if you can afford the extra, go with the Baader filters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
