This results in a deeper background sky and brighter, better-defined nebula structures. Even in dark locations, the filter provides additional contrast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This 2\u2033 version is suitable for larger eyepieces and photographic applications where a wider light path is desired. The aluminum mount is fine threaded and the glass optics are multi-coated for maximum light transmission in appropriate bands, with minimal reflections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Advantages<\/strong><br>\u2713 Spectacular contrast in emission nebulae<br>\u2713 Blocks disturbing light pollution from street lights<br>\u2713 High quality 2\u2033 design - ideal for larger eyepieces or filter wheels<br>\u2713 Multi-coated glass - low reflection and color neutral<br>\u2713 Optimal for telescopes from 150 mm aperture upwards<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Specifications<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Type:<\/strong> UHC filter (Ultra High Contrast).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Connection:<\/strong> 2 inches (50.8 mm)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Mounting:<\/strong> Aluminum with fine thread<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Coating:<\/strong> Multiple anti-reflective<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Filter operation:<\/strong> Blocks broad spectrum city light, allows OIII and H-beta through<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Application:<\/strong> Visual deep-sky observation, possibly photography<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Not suitable for:<\/strong> Planetary observation or broadband use<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Application<\/strong><br>The Omegon Pro UHC Nebula Filter 2\u2033 is the perfect choice for deep-sky object enthusiasts observing with larger telescopes or using 2\u2033 eyepieces.
