Crafted with multi-coated optical glass and a durable aluminum frame, it fits standard 1.25" eyepieces and is individually tested for light transmittance. Ideal for both urban and dark sky observers, this filter reveals faint nebula details previously invisible, making it a must-have for passionate amateur astronomers seeking affordable, professional-grade clarity. ## Description desertcart.com : Astromania Telescope Filter 1.25 Inch UHC Filter Improve Contrast Nebula | Light Pollution Filter, Optical Glass Lens, Aluminum Frame, Fit 1.25" Eyepiece, Telescope Accessories Nebula Filter for Orion : Electronics Review: Budget Friendly Filter that Works Well - I ordered this to cut down on light pollution and enhance the nebula I can view in the fall and winter months. I use it on my Seestar S30 with an adapter for 2in filters. This worked extremely well. Attached is a picture of the Jellyfish Nebula taken over several nights with the filter. Before using the filter the nebula was hardly visible because of light pollution. I think the filter did an excellent job of bringing out the Oxygen-III and Hydrogen-Beta emissions while blocking light pollution. The filter is affordable. It screws easily into the 2 inch adapter. I recommend this filter. Review: Blown away by the added detail - Viewing through a 6' dob, live in a Bortle10 area, and waited for the moon to "set" at 3:30am. Viewing in Sagittarius,viewing due South, 10 miles North of Charlotte. Went straight to Lagoon Nebula. Ive tried a general LPC (light pollution filter) in the past which helps. However with the LPC, I was only able to make out half of it. With the UHC, I was able to see both halves, and the dark lane through the middle. Had a similar experience with the Swan/Omega nebula. In the past could only make out the "body" of the Swan. Last night I was able to view the "head" as well as wisps of clouds, off the tail. I have never been able to make out the Trifid or Eagle Nebula until last night. Both were very faint and could make out very little detail. I have no comparison to other UHC filters. However if you are on a budget like myself and cant spend $100 on a filter, I feel like you will enjoy this filter. Very pleased with the purchase and details I was able to see. ## Features - Nebula filter for increasing contrast; also suitable for use with smaller telescopes - Many objects only first become visible at all when using an UHC filter; but also; highlights such as the Orion; Lagoon or Swan nebulae; show a whole new side to them - Can be used at both light-polluted and dark sky sites; blocks the light from mercury and sodium-vapour lamps - 1.25 inch filter thread; each Astromania Ultra High Contrast Filter is individually inspected and proudly inscribed with the percentage of light transmittance of the O-III and H-beta emission lines - As many celestial objects; such as nebulae; radiate at other wavelengths; a considerable increase in contrast can be achieved by this; the background sky appears darker and all at once; faint details become visible ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07VCXJ9HN | | Best Sellers Rank | #17 in Telescope Filters | | Brand | Astromania | | Coating Description | Multi Coating | | Compatible Devices | Telescopes with 1.25 inch eyepiece | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 154 Reviews | | Enclosure Material | Aluminum, Optical Glass | | Item Dimensions L x W | 1.25"L x 1.25"W | | Item Weight | 8.53 g | | Manufacturer | Astromania | | Manufacturer Part Number | SKU_AM_UF1E | | Material | Aluminum, Optical Glass | | Media Type | ProductImage | | Model Name | UF1B | | Model Number | SKU_AM_UF1B | | Number of Items | 1 | | Photo Filter Effect Type | Enhancing | | Photo Filter Size | 31.75 millimeters | | Photo Filter Thread Size | 31.75 millimeters | | Screen Size | 1.25 inches | | Special Effect | Enhancing | | Thread Size | 31.75 millimeters | | Water Resistance Level | Moisture Resistant | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Astromania - **Coating Description:** Multi Coating - **Material:** Plastic - **Photo Filter Effect Type:** Enhancing - **Photo Filter Thread Size:** 31.75 Millimeters - **Product Dimensions:** 1.25"L x 1.25"W - **Water Resistance Level:** Not Water Resistant ## Images ![Astromania Telescope Filter 1.25 Inch UHC Filter Improve Contrast Nebula - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71edUO+HmeL.jpg) ![Astromania Telescope Filter 1.25 Inch UHC Filter Improve Contrast Nebula - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/715oKJS2uYL.jpg) ![Astromania Telescope Filter 1.25 Inch UHC Filter Improve Contrast Nebula - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71EEertAz6L.jpg) ![Astromania Telescope Filter 1.25 Inch UHC Filter Improve Contrast Nebula - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81aRqiuuxaL.jpg) ![Astromania Telescope Filter 1.25 Inch UHC Filter Improve Contrast Nebula - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81mDMbdN2JL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Budget Friendly Filter that Works Well *by K***N on May 20, 2026* I ordered this to cut down on light pollution and enhance the nebula I can view in the fall and winter months.
