Free shipping does not apply to international orders. During check-out, you will be presented with several shipping choices and costs. However, the export of some items may be restricted outside the US due to size or manufacturer restrictions.
- Baader H-Beta Narrowband Filter – Precision Grade
- 5.5 nm FWHM, recommended for optical systems from f/10 to f/3.5
- Reflex-Blocker™ hard coated and planeoptically polished – with sealed coating edges (Life-Coat™)
- Blackened edges all around, with filter-lead-side-indicator in the form of a telescope-sided black outer rim
- Optimized for modern CMOS cameras, but likewise excellent for CCD camera technologies
The new generation of Baader CMOS-optimized filters feature:
- Increased contrast, matched for typical CMOS quantum efficiency and s/n ratio
- Reflex-Blocker™ coatings, for largest ever freedom from halos, even under most adverse conditions concerning aux-optics
- Blackened edges all around, with filter-lead-side-indicator in the form of a telescope-sided black outer rim, to additionally eliminate any reflection due to light falling onto the edge of a filter
- Each filter coated individually, with sealed coating edge (NOT cut out of a larger plate)
- Life-Coat™: evermore hard coatings to enable a non-aging coating for life – even in a most adverse environment
Specifications
- Filter thickness (without cell): 2mm
- HBW (Half Bandwidth): 5.5nm
- CWL (Center Wavelength): 486.1nm
- AR Coating: Reflex-Blocker™ hard coated, planeoptically polished
- Special features: CMOS-optimized with Life-Coat™
- Filter mount choices:
- 1.25" round mounted in LPFC 6mm cell
- 2" round mounted in LPFC 6mm cell
- 31mm round unmounted
- 36mm round unmounted
- 50.4mm round unmounted
- Type of filter: Bandpass
Life-Coat™: Limited-Lifetime-Warranty for CMOS-optimized Baader filters
A Baader Planetarium exclusive. Filters incorporating Baader Planetarium’s Life-Coat™ technology are so durable that Baader Planetarium warrants the coatings for the life of the filter. Baader Planetarium has developed Life-Coat™ using materials and processes that result in coatings which will not degrade or fail for a lifetime. Life-Coat™ coatings resist moisture, temperature extremes, and are hardened to withstand normal cleanings.
Baader Planetarium guarantees their Life-Coat™ coatings will not peel, flake or physically degrade and will withstand repeated cleaning with fine optical cleaning equipment. The Limited Lifetime Warranty applies to the original purchaser and does not cover failure from mis-use, physical damage through improper handling, or improper cleaning.
