saxon Colour Planetary Filter No.58A – Dark Green (1.25")

Unlock fine planetary detail with the saxon Colour Planetary Filter No.58A – Dark Green (1.25"), designed to enhance contrast and atmospheric structure on a range of celestial bodies. Ideal for use with telescopes over 8" in aperture, this filter strongly blocks red and blue wavelengths, allowing subtle features to stand out with greater clarity.

On Mars, it sharpens the appearance of polar ice caps and highlights yellow dust storms. It also enhances cloud formations on Venus and brings out high-contrast regions in Jupiter’s atmosphere, including its cloud belts. Observers will also notice improvement in viewing Saturn’s white cloud zones and polar regions.
