Omegon 2.1X42 with nebular filter?

[pluton]

Hello,
A few weeks ago I bought some very original binoculars, Omegon 2.1X42, I imagine that they will be clones to the Vixen ..., until yesterday night I could not release them, the night was quite good, although where I live in summer there is enough heat, and there is not much transparency, but I have to comment that the images were pretty good, very curious, I had to bring my eyes close enough to the eyepieces to be able to cover more visual field, and I thought maybe some nebular or UHC filters could be good to observe nebulas, my Omegon have threads for 2 "filters .....
Anyone who has these binoculars has tried a nebular filter?
Thank you
Paul

I have the same Omegon bins. Ive not used them much since i bought them. I didnt know that you can attach filters.

I specifically asked Omegon and he confirmed it to me, the lenses have a thread for 2 "filters ...

I’ve used filters with some Kasai binos of similar spec. Good fun for trawling the Milky Way, I managed the North America Nevula but I think you need more power for the Veil, I never managed it anyway, perhaps just darker skies needed.

I’m going to take my 7x35s with OIII and UHC filters (one of each) away camping to see how they go.

The Veil is very thin at 1x. North America and the other larger emission nebulae would be bettered targets. I have made a filter for one lens of my 2x54 to see how it performs.
