In this video I give you my verdict about the Astronomik CLS filter for reducing light pollution in astrophotography. Is it worth it's price tag? Does it actually work? I will tell you how to get beautiful milky way photos even from the city! I talk about how to get the best results in milky way photography given the conditions you're in. I show my sample images taken in Bortle class 7 area with and without the filter so you can judge for yourself!
Let me know what you think in the comments!
Here's the link to RAW images that I've taken without the filter - you can try to process them differently to produce a better final image in which case definitely reach out to me either via comment here or on social media (links to my profiles at the bottom)

Thank you much! I bought one!
Interesting review and conclusion, how does this filter compare to the Optolong L-Pro ?
Thanks I have just ordered one
Hey kamil, thanks for the video. I bought both the optolong L-Pro and the Astronomik CLS-CCD clip for my full frame. The spectral pattern for the narrowband ranges are roughly the same except the L-Pro allows few more spikes of light.
Given that led light pollution is broadband how much does the cls filter work for sky glow and to me the biggest question is is this better or should I shoot L-3 + dedicated Ha filter and do HaRGB on my astromodified camera? What do you think? I plan on returning both these filters for now.
Thanks a lot for all these videos. They provide great content, and post production values are sky high.
Thanks!
2:09 You can take calibration frames with the camera and put them into a stacking software to make the colors accurate.
Thanks for the video!
I have a canon 70-200 2.8...50mm 1.8...55-250 3.5 and 18 -135 3.5....would any of these work for astro photography with my EOS R?
You can do astrophotography with every lens however with better or worse results. From your collection i’d say:
- 70-200mm f/2.8 : good for deep sky photos on a tracker
- 50mm f/1.8 : good for milky way shots on full frame, can produce good results without a tracker
- the remaining ones could be used with a tracker as well but I’d stick to those 2 I mentioned above
quick answer: no, and yes.
If you don't modify your camera to be able to see H-alpha emission then no, these filters aren't for you.
If yu want to photograph things that aren't in the sky, no
If you want to photograph large broad band objects, still no.
The CLS and UHC are for cameras that have been modified or for astro dedicated cameras, they work poorely on reflection nebulas and galaxies, milky way included.
the cut off from 550 to 650nm is just way too aggressive.
for the kind of general use most photographers consider astrophotography (night landscape would be a better term) an L-Pro filter is what you want, not a CLS.
Not bashing on astronomik, they make good filters, but they just don't make an optolong L-pro equivalent.
Tbh, for night landscape on a tripod i personally would forego astro filters alltoghether and switch to the clear sky/ clear night filter you can get from Nisi, haida and the like
The CLS ccd is only for modified cameras while the CLS works for both.
The need to astro modify a camera to see h-alpha is a myth. Regarding filters, there are light pollution filters like Astronomiks CLS and more "complex" multi band pass filters such as Optolongs or IDAS, which are more selective in the wavelengths they cut. However, do not mistake selectivity for better performance. Performance DEPENDS on the nature of the ligt pollution in the place you shoot from. Astronomik CLS may perform way better than IDAS depending on the situation, and multi band pass filters also mess with colour anyway.
@@unrealspetznaz makes sense. So I'm thinking of getting a Astronomik L-3 ir cut filter and dedicated h-alpha filter for my astro modded camera. That way I can truly use the h-alpha for what it is meant for. And for milky way I anyway have to use the L-3 filter but do I still need a filter to bring out the milky way in post? Thoughts?
what are the things that "arent in the sky"?
Hello, did you have any problem with the sensor curtain/ protector in the Eos R when using this clip filter? Thanks for video, I have one of these on order.
Nope, not at all. I think this curtain is just the mechanical shutter itself. However there is a caveat with the RF 35mm f/1.8 macro lens. Have you seen this video: th-cam.com/video/sKcNDIe1JOI/w-d-xo.html ?
Thanks man ❤️
Busco reseñas del filtro y me topé con tu canal pero el idioma no ayuda. Podrías por favor activar subtítulos en español?. Un saludo desde Argentina!
W jakim stopniu ten filtr przyciemnia obraz? Chodzi mi czy o pół, 1/3 czy całą działkę?
Nie sprawdzałem, ale przyciemnia sporo, myślę, że może nawet więcej niż jedną działkę
Hi Kamil ,one question ,the camera must be modifided or not?
No it doesn’t
@@kamilkp Thank's for the fast answer👍
What’s that app u use to check light polution?
PlanIt
Hi, what is that App you're showing in the video for light pollution ? Is it for Android ? Thank you !
It’s „PlanIt” I have a separate video about this app also - th-cam.com/video/cNpvE4_ok_g/w-d-xo.html
Do I need to buy a CLS CCD filter or CLS filter for my unmodded Sony A7R II?
For unmodded => CLS
to my knowledge those CCD filters are for modded cameras
@@kamilkp that's correct
I'm thinking of getting this filter for my Sony a7iii, but I'm wondering if this is good for large Nebula and galaxies. Also, the websites shows the CLS filter to be green, but yours is yellow. Why is that?
The color of the filter doesn’t matter. It reflects different colors depending on the angle of incoming light. A CLS filter is good for broadband targets like: wide field milky way, galaxies, clusters, comets or reflection nebulae
@@kamilkp You think it would be great with Emission Nebulas?
For emission nebulae the best filter is a dual narrowband such as Optolong l-enhance or l-extreme
Witam, chciałbym się dowiedzieć czy z tym filtrem da radę coś podziałać w mieście jeśli chodzi o nocne zdjęcia z niebem. Koszt nie jest mały ale jeśli by sporo wyeliminowało LP to jeszcze można by było rozważyć zakup. Posiadam Sony A7_3.
Z miasta lepsze sa dual-narrowband jak Optolong L-enhance albo STC duo-band
Do deep sky
@@kamilkp a optolong L pro? do zastosowań miejskich nada się? by zredukować poświatę lamp i uwidocznić gwiazdy
Cos tam bedzie lepiej na pewno ale cudów nie będzie. Zarówno L-Pro jak i CLS to filtry szerokopasmowe
@@kamilkp czyli musi być wąskopasmowy, L extreme? Z tym, że on chyba nie występuje w wersji na matrycę - clip in.
The non filter picture needed more contrast they are not equal.
There is a link in description to the RAW images taken without the filter. Be my guest and try to prove me wrong that more detail can be pulled out of them. I tried bringing out more contrast and it didn’t seem to work.
this clip filter makes heavy vignetting even on 50mm lens
C’est bizarre mon nom de famille est PEKALA
I don’t speak french but I think I understand what you meant 😅 - well it’s a pretty common last name I think 😆
"Milky Way Photos in the city" Well, outskirts city with a 5000, 20000 population maybe. I live 7km NE outskirts far to downtown in a city with 700000 population and the Milky Way is absolutely dismished, invisible, just the main summer triangle stars. The subject is a liar. I´d rather say MILKY WAY PHOTOS from OUTSKIRTS TOWN OR VILLAGE
What an outrage... you are mistaken however because this was taken from within a 766 thousand pupulation city that I live in: Krakow, Poland. Google it.
@@kamilkpWhat an outrage!.. I live en Zaragoza Spain, urban morphology is quite different. I invite you to visit lightpollution map and compare cities. Krakow is not an european city prototype
It is a „city” however - not a village 😀
@@kamilkp Yep a city where you can see the Milky Way at naked eyes in a way or another. So, that filter is useless for those living in a city and can´t see at naked eye the Milky Way barely at least ..is that right or not? :-D
No, there is no way I can see even a glimpse of the Milky Way here in Krakow with my naked eye!
