Altair Solar Contrast Booster filter is in stock and shipping now.

 

Improves contrast and visibility of fine structures such as sunspots and granulation (convection cells) in the solar continuum / photosphere.

 

Works with any telescope, mono or colour CMOS camera, or naked eye.

 

Gives a particularly good improvement with Achromatic refractors.

 

Please note: Only for use with a Herschel Wedge, solar filter, or Baader solarfilm!
