Series 4000 Color Filter Set #3 (#8, #21, #38A, #56) Description
There are no finer filters available for telescopic applications than the Meade Series 4000 Color Filters and Color Filter Sets. Choose the filter or sets that best meet your needs and see what you have been missing! Use individually or stacked to achieve selective filtration of the visual color spectrum. Permits observation and photography of planetary surface detail that is often virtually invisible without filtration.
More Details and Specifications
Color filters are considered by many to be an essential "must have" for observing and imaging the Moon and planets. The high quality Meade Series 4000 Color Filter Sets are manufactured from the finest optical glass, dyed (not "color coated") and anti-reflection coated on both sides of the glass for the highest performance. The Series 4000™ Color Filter Set #3 includes: (a) #8 Light Yellow (83% Transmission) - popular for enhancing lunar features and observing red and orange features of Jupiter, Uranus and Neptune. (b) #21 Orange (46% Transmission) - to enhance detail in polar regions of Jupiter and Saturn, and sharpens edge detail of maria areas of Mars. (c) #38A Dark Blue (17% Transmission) - Popular for the study of Jupiter, strongly rejects orange and red spectra for greater cloud belt and Red Spot contrast. Also for general detail on Mars, Saturn and Venus. (d) #56 Light Green (53% Transmission) - excellent for Mars' polar ice caps and yellow-tinted dust storms, and is also for increasing red and blue features on Jupiter and lunar contrast. All filters are threaded for and compatible with all Meade Series 4000 and Series 5000 eyepieces.
