Optolong L-eXtreme vs Optolong L-Ultimate vs Askar Colour Magic 6nm

[Lee_P]

For the past few weeks I've been busy testing two new dualband filters, the Optolong L-Ultimate and Askar Colour Magic 6nm, to see how they compare with the classic Optolong L-eXtreme in real-world conditions. The review is now ready here: https://urbanastrophotography.com/index.php/2022/10/22/dualband-filter-shootout-l-extreme-vs-l-ultimate-vs-colour-magic-6nm/

The ultimate definitely shines out better , interesting how the newer askar 3nm will compare , I use the extreme and hate the halos on bright stars it produces  , damn this hobby gets expensive 😆

I'm looking forward to testing the Askar 3nm versus the Optolong L-Ultimate. Askar are currently out of stock, but they'll send me one when they get more in. Fingers crossed it won't be too long a wait!
