AstroSolar OD 5.0 filter for safe white-light solar observation with spotting scopes or telephoto lenses.
DESCRIPTION
The ASSF 50 mm solar filter enables safe solar observation and imaging with spotting scopes, amateur telescopes, and telephoto lenses. It uses Baader’s AstroSolar Safety Film OD 5.0, tension-free mounted to deliver true diffraction-limited optical quality. The filter material is bonded to a plastic ring which supports an aluminum front cell, creating a highly stable assembly. Three rubberized centering pins with brass threads allow adjustable and secure mounting on optics from 55 to 96 mm in diameter. A sliding black baffle prevents stray light entry, and three Velcro safety straps add extra stability. Ideal for magnifications up to 120x, this filter offers a precise, safe solar imaging solution.
