Filter advice please

Hi

Have been using a moon filter with 10, 20 and 25. Still find it quite bright when looking at it for long periods are there any other filters I could use as well?

Some people use sunglasses as an alternative.

Dark Red / Red may be useful too.

I don't think moon filters are all equal, Baader offer different strengths. Maybe a stronger one is needed?

Or maybe a variable ?

You could try one of these:

I have found that while acting as a light pollution filter, it also makes a very good Moon filter. If you find it useless as a moon filter, then you just use it for light pollution.

Hi Maryc, the Baader Neodymium filter is quite a good one I find: http://www.firstlightoptics.com/light-pollution-reduction/baader-neodymium-filter.html
