Astro Essential colour filters for astronomy are most often used to enhance contrast when observing the Moon and planets.
Results depend on seeing conditions, the telescope and the target being observed or photographed but the right filter can make a significant difference when, for example, viewing the lunar surface or teasing detail from Jupiter's weather bands or Saturn's rings.
See our handy guide to colour filters and how they can help improve your lunar and planetary visual observing.
The Astro Essentials 1.25" Yellow/Green Filter can be used to bring out the divisions in the rings of Saturn under suitable conditions and with a reasonably sized telescope. I have yet to test it on Saturn`s rings but will do when there are good seeing conditions. The filter itself is well made and will attach to other filters should this be required.
The housing measures 7.5mm plus 2.5mm for the thread.
