Vai al moduloOptolong L-eXtreme 2" (50.8mm) – Dual Band Narrowband Filter
The Optolong L-eXtreme 2" filter (M48x0.75 – 50.8mm) is a dual band narrowband filter designed for deep-sky astrophotography. It isolates the key nebula emission lines H-Alpha (656nm) and OIII (500nm), including H-Beta, offering excellent suppression of light pollution thanks to its 7nm narrow bandwidth. This makes it ideal for imaging under urban or suburban skies.
Developed as an evolution of the well-known Optolong L-eNhance filter, the L-eXtreme is a practical solution for astrophotographers who want high-contrast results without investing in a monochrome camera and filter wheel. It performs exceptionally well with color CMOS cameras, DSLRs, and CCD cameras (mono or color).
Why choose the Optolong L-eXtreme
- Effectively reduces light pollution
- Ideal for emission nebulae (HII regions)
- High transmission up to 90%
- 7nm narrow bandpass for superior contrast
- Excellent color balance with one-shot color cameras
- Suitable for Bortle 7–8 skies
Recommended uses
- Light pollution reduction
- Enhancing contrast on emission nebulae
- Deep-sky imaging with color CMOS and DSLR cameras
- Compatible with CCD cameras
