product Description
The ZWO IR850 1.25" Infrared Filter is designed for planetary and lunar astrophotography where infrared wavelengths can reveal details that are less visible in normal RGB imaging. By transmitting infrared light around the 850 nm region, it can work particularly well with compatible monochrome and colour planetary cameras. It is a useful choice for experienced imagers looking to experiment with infrared planetary imaging and improve atmospheric-detail capture under suitable conditions.
Key Features
The ZWO IR850 1.25" Infrared Filter provides selective infrared transmission for lunar and planetary imaging. In addition, its standard 1.25-inch format makes it suitable for compatible cameras, filter wheels, and accessories. Moreover, infrared imaging can sometimes provide improved atmospheric stability compared with visible-light imaging, making this filter a useful specialist accessory for planetary astrophotography.
