Adam H. ★★★★★

Used this on my 8-inch SCT last night and the contrast on Jupiter’s bands was noticeably sharper. The Schott glass really does cut through the glare better than my old cheap filter.

Riley S. ★★★★★

Finally got a chance to test this on Jupiter last night, and the contrast on the cloud bands was noticeably sharper than with my old filter. The optical glass feels solid and well-made, exactly what I needed for better lunar detail.

Nicholas ★★★★★

The Schott glass really makes a difference when I'm trying to pull out surface details on Mars. Even through my 8-inch Dob, the contrast on the polar ice caps was noticeably sharper than with my cheaper red filter.
