- Celestron's astronomical eyepiece filters are a great way to enhance your telescope viewing experience. Filters are able to: reduce light scatter and pollution, improve contrast, and reveal subtle details. Visual filters should be an essential part of everyone's observing kit.
THANK YOU...... I just bought my first telescope and trying to learn as much as possible, your video is the ONLY one I found on "how to install color filter lens".
Great info celestron, thanks for sharing. I started my astro adventures with a celestron 102slt and altaz computerised mount and moved on to the avx EQ mount for deep sky. I love the ease of use and high quality products, thanks celestron!
Refractors are great choice !!! Best quality by far!
Great video! I'm thinking about getting any of those filters, shown on the video, for my new Celestron Inspire 100AZ Telescope one day 🙌
Flat-earthers must learn and take notes.
Filters are flat!
TheRattleSnake3145 but lenses and mirrors are round lol explain that

@@TheDragonballboy I can’t tell if you are being serious
@@rocketsandvibes this some next level trolling I'm doing 😂
I find that my filters, which are the same as in the video, make the image really dim as a lot of the light is blocked out, meaning the observations aren't very good and I end up not using the filters at all. Any suggestions on fixing this?
I think this is a limitation of your Apperature size (size of the front opening) some filter companies will tell you how much light they actually eliminate, may look into a filter of the same color, with a lower light elimination level (say from 12% to 7%?)

What is the aperture diameter of your scope?
You might like a variable ND filter, which transmits from 1% up to 40% of visible light.
I just want light pollution filter yeah
What about NATURAL filter for the jupiter and saturn in 21 dec?
I have celestron 60 az its just a starting version but still very nice👍
Yes refractors are the most user friendly and best image quality
Great video 👍:)
I agree 🙌
Wow incredible
very good video
I bought recently 25×70 celestron skymaster. Is there any light pollution filter for that?
Does an uhc help with the western veil?
I just bought the 6se. My moon filter doesn’t go in like that. How do I use the filters?
gringos.... I need filter solar for nextar 130 slt......
thanks i did not know how to put it on
If I am using my 3X Barlow Lens do I put it on that or the eyepiece that goes on top of it?
Barlows don't support filters. You have to insert filters in eyepiece only😊
@@TheAstroGuy_m42 Thanks for the answer! 😃
@@AstroGuy You're welcome!
My lens that came with my Celestron 114AZ do not have threads on them, a Celestron PL 26mm. How am I supposed to put the lens filter on as I need a Moon filter as it's too bright to look at.
The threads are on the silver barrel of the eyepiece. The filter goes onto the eyepiece, then the eyepiece is inserted into the scope. I'll bet $5.00 that he's looking for threads on the eyecup side of the eyepiece.
@@CelestronDotCom No I am looking at the end of the eye piece, the side with no lens and I do not see threads there, inside nor out unless you count those super fine ridges on the inside that I cannot see where the threads start with a 4x magnifier?

Will a moon filter work well on jupiter ?
you can but it will not look good.
Jupiter will just look darker.
It will look darker and more green
Google "telescope light filter chart"
You will find charts that go from useless to best through all the filter colors and the planets by name. Simply choose one that has a best mark under jupiter!
How about the neutral filter? Will it work great, guys?
Only filters I find worth using are 80A(Blue)and UHC
If the color filters are recommended for 8-inch telescopes..then why bother including them in accessoiry kits aimed for the Astromaster series which are 5-inch telescopes.
Filters work on telescope of all apertures. We only recommend the use of 8" of aperture or more if you intend to stack filters, not use them individually.
Yes aperture is irrelevant, 1.25 inch eyepiece is the only restriction to being able to use these light filters
Toufik
At least 8" apertures are suggested for at least TWO filters stacked together.
Will a blue colour filter work on jupiter
Ya but it will be blue but it can help with the lense glare
Endermaster 33 Thanks
Google "telescope filter chart" . They go from useless to betlst for each color under each planet. and simply choose one that has a "best" mark under "jupiter"
I bought the oxygen 3 filter and honestly It makes my views worse. At least they were telling the truth when they said it darkness the object. But it darkens it too much and it makes it look worse. I tried it on the dumbbell and you couldn't see anything and when it's off you can see it better. Is mine defective or am I not using it on the right object?
Hi Jonathan, please reach out to our technical support so they can look into what is causing this issue or replace if defective. The best way to reach us is by submitting a ticket here: www.celestron.com/pages/technical-support
Could I use these filters on a Orion 6" XT6 Plus Dobsonian?
Any telescope that takes a 1.25 inch eyepiece
@@imagineaworld there's 2 inch filters as well :/
@@mr.person5788 there are 2 inch filters
Can i see a colour full nebula with this filter on my eyepiece???
Nebulae filters will enhance the fuzziness of the nebula, but will never show the vivid colors they show in images. The human eye is not sensitive enough for this.
Just got a celestron telescope
Congrats!
Or his brother brands skywatcher
I salute your wallet
There is a filter for light polution...
I am such a noob...
I felt the same way lol

yes, but nothing beats quality skies.
