Help for filters alternative than Astrodon


Recommended Posts

Which alternative to go for filters other/rather than Astrodon for 3nm NB filters [at least OIII and SII because i have Ha 5nm], Chroma or Scientific Customs?

As you all know that Astrodon increased their prices for 3nm, even for LRGB it is increased, i only have Ha 5nm that i bought in 2017, that is why i told people i buy too much gear because sometimes they disappear/discontinued or the prices go up, but i was late and now Astrodon is expensive at $500 range for their filters for 1.25"[LRGB or 3nm], so i am thinking maybe i should move to another brands/makers if the quality is the same.

I bought a set of 3nm Chroma narrowband filters..... I am very happy with them 👍🏻

coming from you then i MUST trust, i will put this Chroma in my list, but i will wait a bit to see, more people to confirm is better.

Thank you very much, Sara!

I started in 2017, and i already wasted a lot and i was like shocked or as you said nearly died, but i did't think twice and bought Astrodon Ha 5nm that time, was a great purchase, but i didn't use it since 2018 because i bought a cheap full set of filters, but i really want to go higher quality and narrower band, 5nm is fine, i only need to add OIII and SII at 3nm and i am done, but Astrodon now is more pricey than before, another brand are same price of Astrodon 2 years ago so i will pay a lot no matter what.
