product description

W A R N I N G

Looking at or near the Sun will cause instant and irreversible damage to your eyes, including blindness. Eye damage is often painless, so there is no warning to the observer that damage has occurred until it is too late. Do not point a telescope or its viewfinder at or near the Sun. Do not look through a telescope or its viewfinder as it is moving.

The full aperture of any instrument that is pointed at the sun must be covered with a proper solar filter or filter/mask combination.

Children and Visitors should be supervised by an adult at all times when partaking in solar observation. Otherwise, keep solar equipment out of a child's and visitors reach to avoid accidental injury.

Please read all manuals before use!

 

  • For solar work use only with pre-filter
  • Boosts contrast and cuts atmospheric turbulence (in combination with white-light solar filters)
  • A must for achromatic refractors
  • Planeoptically Polished

The Baader Solar Continuum filter is designed to enhance the visibility of solar granulation and sunspot details. By transmitting a specific spectral region around 540nm, free of emission and absorption lines, the Baader Solar Continuum filter is able to boost contrast and reduce the effects of atmospheric turbulence. With the Baader Solar Continuum filter in place, images snap to focus, and granulation becomes regularly visible. Details at the limit of visibility become easier to hold, and image motion reduced.

The Baader Solar Continuum filter works well in all types of telescopes, for both visual and imaging. Users of SCTs and achromatic refractors will find it particularly beneficial, as it completely excludes the blue and red wavelengths, and centers on the peak visual wavelengths where the telescope optics are sharpest and free from chromatic aberrations. For digital imaging, we also recommend the Baader Continuum filter be combined with Baader UV/IR Cut Filter (to completely cut the defocused far infrared wavelengths).

Please Note: For safe use, the Solar Continuum filter must be used in conjunction with a primary solar filter (ie, Herschel Wedge Prism, or Baader AstroSolar Safety Film). It must be placed After the primary filter, and cannot be used alone, or permanent eye and equipment damage will result!
