Collection: Optolong L-eNhance Filters for Astrophotography | Dark Clear Skies

The Optolong L-eNhance filter is a dual-bandpass filter designed for astrophotography in light-polluted areas. It enhances the contrast and color of emission nebulae by isolating the hydrogen-alpha (Ha) and hydrogen-beta (Hb) emission lines. This unique design allows the L-eNhance filter to selectively transmit the wavelengths of the nebula while blocking the transmission of artificial light pollution. The L-eNhance filter has an improved transmission profile compared to traditional light pollution filters, making it an ideal choice for astrophotographers looking to capture stunning images of the night sky.

Features of Optolong L-eNhance Filters

The Optolong L-eNhance filter is a premium astrophotography filter with the following features:

  1. Dual-Bandpass Filter: The L-eNhance filter isolates the Ha and Hb emission lines of the nebula, resulting in enhanced contrast and colour of emission nebulae.

  2. Improved Transmission: The filter has an improved transmission profile compared to traditional light pollution filters, making it an ideal choice for astrophotographers.

  3. Reduction of Light Pollution: The filter selectively transmits the wavelengths of the nebula while blocking the transmission of artificial light pollution, resulting in stunning images of the night sky.

  4. High-Quality Glass: The filter is made of high-quality optical glass that ensures sharp and clear images.

  5. Compatibility: The Optolong L-eNhance filter is compatible with most DSLR and CCD cameras.
