        Comments about Meade #3200 Lunar & Planetary Telescope Color Filter Set:

        I'm pretty new to astronomy, and planetary observation was one of the greatest draws to my getting a telescope in the first place. Since Mars is up right now, it only seemed appropriate that I compare/contrast the view with and without the filter. The amount of detail to be seen in Mars is dramatically increased (I'm referring to the light-blue filter which the included instructions recommended for Mars) as was the full moon with the included lunar filter. This was a great start for me filter-wise!

        Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

            Customer Q & A
            1 - 5 of 7
                1   2      

            Q1: Will this filter set work on my Meade ETX-125 eyepieces?

            A: Yes, Those filters are the standard 1-1/4 inch format, just like your eyepieces on your Meade ETX. They will thread onto the eyepiece perfectly.

            Q2: Wiil this set work with series 5000 eyepieces

            A: Yes, the #3200 Lunar & Planetary Color Filter Set will work just fine with Series 5000 eyepieces.

            Q3: I have the beginners Telestar 60AZ-A. 1.Will these filters fit the 60AZ-A? 2.Are these filters narrowband, or nebula filters? The text Im reading says that narrowband, or nebula filters are a better choice for viewing emission nebulas. Thanks, Chris

            A: The #3200 Lunar & Planetary Filter Set is primary for viewing the Moon and planets. The filters will fit just about any 1.25-inch eyepiece, including those in your Telestar. As your text indicates, narrowband, nebular filters are the best ones for viewing emission nebulae. Here's the URL for a narrowband nebular filter that eliminates most artificial light; just paste it into your browser's address window to see the filter: http://telescopes.com/products/Meade_908N_Narrowband_Nebular_Filter_1.25_Inch_18373.html.

            Q4: I live in a small urban area, but with some light polution. I was wondering what type of filter to get. Thank you very much.

            A: We recommend the Celestron UHC/LPR filter. It blocks wavelengths of artificial light, leaving you with an ultra high-contrast image. Here's the URL; just paste it into your browser's address window: http://telescopes.com/products/celestron-uhclpr-filter-1-25-inch-32972.html.

            Q5: I have a Celestron Casegrain 8" 1 1/4. Can I use the Meade #3200 Lunar & Planetary Color Filter Set filter ?

            A: Yes, you can use the Meade #3200 set with any telescope having a 1.25-inch format.
