CLS astronomic clip in filter

[williamnohair]

Has anyone any experience of one of these? my seeing is blighted by a red glow which will appear if I go longer that two minutes at ISO 400 doesn't matter if I change any settings still get that red glow. This filter seems the bees knees but is a trifle expensive and getting it passed the missus is going to be difficult

I have it and it's worth every penny.

I just got one. Its awesome! Just dont freak out when your images and flats have a blue tint to them. (like I did) Can be processed out easily in DSS.

+1 here. They are expensive but fit / remove easily and they work as well. I live in an 'orange' town centre and I can easily do 500 sec subs with no orange glow.

Another +1 from me - expensive ...but worth it. I can go to 20minute subs under quite dark skies with my modded 1000d at ISO 800

That is pretty amazing, never saw that before!

[MRAPO]

YES ITS PREETY AMAZING BUT IT WILL COST YOU 250 EURO JUST FOR A FILTER.

[earth titan]

Hmm. Very nice :-(

I still like the cls filter however, as it is so easy to fit and forget to a DSLR.

Well if you hover over it's the bottom one but I would have gone for that anyway as there is a small blue light in the tree on the right...

Hi Bill, i have been looking at various filters as i have now ordered a DMK + Baader LRGB CCD filter set, I found a really neat addition i may buy in the future its called a 'CANON DSLR T-RING with 2" Filter Container with UHC-S FILTER', http://www.365astronomy.com/canon-dslr-tring-with-2-filter-container-with-uhcs-filter-p-2577.html it takes any 2" filter, you unscrew a few grub screws & swap in your next filter, not sure if it;s any advantage over the Astronomik Clip filters but where as the Clip in filter has a retangular filter section in the centre this thing means you have the entire circular area covered by a filter, without buying & testing one i can't give a deffinate opinion but it's worth a look.

That Baader solution looks ideal for use with full frame cameras when they are mounted on scopes or using older T-mount camera lenses..

For APS-c sized sensor Canon cameras I use the the Astronomik Clip-in filters and I also have the Hutech MFA setup which allows thin celled 1.25" filters to be mounted inside the camera body...

Both those solutions allow you to use the filters with camera lenses for widefield work and would work well with your 200/2.8....
