This Lumicon Orange 2 filter darkens blue, violet, green and yellow-green. The intensified effect of this filter borders on the abstract. In traditional photography, it darkens a blue sky with clouds to resemble the mood of an impending thunderstorm. Architectural photographs gain clarity and drama.
For planetary observing, color filters bring out the most detail because planets are naturally colorful. Different colors bring out different details of the planet you are viewing.
Always remember that you want to use the darkest filter your telescope will handle. Most small telescopes up to about 5 in aperture use the light colors. The larger the telescope, the darker your filter you can use. Color filters can sometimes be used in conjunction with a Neutral Density or Polarizing filter to aid in glare reduction. The more you use your filters the more you appreciate them and their affect.
The 1.25 filters employ industry-standard 1.125 x 42 tpi threads (except for Questar/Brandon, which use a thread pattern unique to Questar). The 48 mm filters employ industry-standard 48 x 0.75 mm threading, which thread into 2 eyepieces. All larger filters use the given size with 0.75 mm pitch (e.g. a 72 mm Minus Violet filter has 72 x 0.75 mm threads).
Deeper than Yellow #15 for more dramatic effects
Particularly useful for all landscape and architectural photography (on black and white film) requiring vivid contours
Sky will be distinctly toned with the clouds clearly contrasted against it
Enhances landscapes, marine scenes and aerial photography
