Product details
The ToupTek SHO Filter Set 2″ – 6.5nm Bandwidth is a high-precision narrowband filter kit for advanced monochrome astrophotography. Ideal for imaging narrowband emission nebulae, this set includes the three essential filters for creating SHO (Hubble Palette) images:
- H-Alpha (656.28 nm ± 0.3 nm)
- [O III] (500.7 nm & 495.9 nm ± 0.3 nm)
- [S II] (671.6 nm & 673.1 nm ± 0.3 nm)
Thanks to the narrow bandwidth of 6.5 nm , the filters block most unwanted light, significantly improving contrast even in the presence of light pollution or the moon. This 2″ version is particularly suitable for large format sensors (APS-C, Full Frame) and is compatible with standard 50.8 mm electronic filter wheels.
Operational advantages:
- Perfect for making SHO (Hubble Palette) images with monochrome cameras.
- Ideal for diffuse nebulae (Heart, Soul, Rosette), planetary nebulae (M27, Helix) and supernova remnants (Veil, Cassiopeia A).
- Maximum signal-to-noise ratio even under urban skies.
- Optimized for long exposure shooting, without the need for RGB calibration.
