SV220 Telescope Filter 7nm Dual-Band Nebula 2 inches

SKU: W9172B-
US$ 159.99
  • Reduce light pollution; SV220 Dual Narrow bandwidth H-Alpha/O-III 7nm narrowband filter properly designed for astrophotography both in light polluted environment.It can greatly reduce the interference from natural light sources such as moonlight or artificial light pollution such as street lighting;
  • Astrophotographic;the filter enhances contrast during visual observation of gaseous and planetary nebulae in all sky conditions; the filter allows high-contrast imaging even in areas with strong light pollution;
  • Improving contrast; an increase in contrast can be perceived as an increase in brightness; the filter makes the contrast of the nebula and sky background increase; not the nebula brighter;
  • Strong applicability; the filter applicable to SVBONY's electronic cameras and astronomical cameras; 
  • Useful for imaging emission nebulae, planetary nebulae and supernova remnants. Designed to sharply cut off the inference of artificial light from sodium vapor or mercury vapor street lights and other unwanted disturbance like sky glow.

Note: This filter set is not suitable for telescopes with a focal ratio below F/5.

                                      SVBONY SV220 2 Inches Dual-Band Filter

SVBONY 7nm dual band filter is designed to drastically reduce the effect of light pollution. The 7nm bandwidth means it strongly isolates
the nebulae's emissions into H-Alpha (red) and OIII (green-blue) from anything else. It blocks light pollution, maximizes the signal from 
nebulae, and darkens the sky background. It also blocks artificial light from mercury vapor lamps, high- and low-pressure sodium vapor 
lights, and unwanted natural light caused by the emission of neutral oxygen in our atmosphere.

SV220 Dual-Band 7nm Nebula Filter

Dual Narrow Bandwidth H-Alpha/O-III 7nm Narrowband Filter Properly Designed For astrophotography of emission nebulae, planetary 
nebulae and supernova remnants. The high transmission and sharp cut-off greatly enhances the contrast of image and brings out the 
most detailed information of those deep-sky objects.  

 

 SV220 Dual-Band 7nm Nebula Filter

The 7nm dual-band filter allows OIII (500.7nm) and H-Alpha (656.3nm) nebula emission lines to be highly transparent, strongly isolates 
the nebulae's emissions into H-Alpha (red) and OIII (green-blue), and drastically reduces the effect of light pollution.

SV220 Dual-Band 7nm Nebula Filter

SV220 Dual-Band 7nm Nebula Filter

You can enjoy the fun of nebula shooting at anytime and anywhere in light pollution city or under a full moon. You don't have to to travel 
through mountains and rivers for your photography, and your traffic fuel and time are also saved.

First light with the SV220 was the night before the full moon. I imaged the Trifid and Pelican Nebulae, and with PixInsight and Bill Blanshan's NarrowbandNormalization I was able to get an outstanding result on both. My Pelican HOO image is so striking that ZWO chose to feature it in the ASIAir Community App. A Gold Star on the very first try is pretty exciting! The weather refused to cooperate the night of the full moon, but the next night was clear (but windy). My first night's images were very noisy, so I increased the gain on my ASI533MC Pro from 100 to 200 and chose the Cygnus Wall as my target for the night. Once again the result was astonishing, with detail and depth that I've never seen before, ranging from the jet black of the dark nebula LDN 935 to the luminous red clouds of the Wall, with a beautiful teal mist in the expanse between. The SV220 is an outstanding value.

An amazing filter that competes with the best on the market

Simply spectacular. Narrowband astrophotography with the SV220 filter is a real pleasure. The sharpness, contrast and elimination of light pollution make this filter an essential tool in my astrophotography kit. I totally recommend it

sv220 duo band 7nm astrophoto filter

I own this filter and I tested it under a Bortle 5 sky with a full moon and it allowed me to image the M42 nebula perfectly, no halo or stray light from the moon or light pollution from the city. I used a color CCD and the end result was incredible. I will post the photo on the official Facebook page as Leoni Giovanni

I'm new at this, so take my endorsement with that knowledge

I'm very much enjoying astrophotography (AP). It is very different from "daytime" photography-- catching photons by the dozens, instead of by the billions. So, one "branch" of AP deals with composition and color of deep space objects (DSOs). It gets deep. There might be some insights-- properties of color and band width and all that. The SV220 (shhesh, read the description above) allows hydrogen alpha (Ha) (think red) bandwidth pass through along with (see "details"). So, if I have a dark sky, very little time, I can shoot some detail in the Orion Nebula, for example. In closing, there are many approaches to processing deep space photos... the "beauty" of not knowing what I don't know allows me to approach the conundrum from a different perspective. (Yes, I will learn, continue studying the "art and science" of astrophotography). Meanwhile I'm kind of enjoying throwing stuff about and seeing what sticks... (not AI assisted).

Features


1.Dual Narrow bandwidth H-Alpha/O-III 7nm narrowband filter properly designed for astrophotography both in light polluted
2.Allows for imaging in bright man-made light pollution and moonlit conditions
3.Take color images without needing to combine images with multiple filters
4.Most useful for One-Shot Color cameras
5.Useful for imaging emission nebulae, planetary nebulae and supernova remnants
6.High transmission and sharp cut-off can greatly enhance the contrast and bring out the most detailed information for those deep-sky objects
7.Designed to sharply cut off the inference of artificial light from sodium vapor or mercury vapor street lights and other unwanted disturbance like sky glow
