Description

Good luck finding a value as good as this.

Zhumell sought out to find a group of filters that could compete with all the others. We have found them, so we decided to put them into a package deal so you can enjoy them all, for one great price!

Zhumell 1.25 Inch High Performance O-III Filter

This particular filter allows light transmission in the doubly ionized oxygen wavelengths. This is particularly good for viewing double star systems where a lot of emissions are in the doubly ionized oxygen range.

Oxygen III (O-III) are great for viewing diffuse and planetary nebulae. The views of the Veil, Ring, Dumbbell, Crescent and Orion nebulae are dramatically improved.

Zhumell 1.25 Inch High Performance Ultra High Contrast UHC Filter

These narrowband filters are for viewing nebulae in the deep sky under a dark sky or a sky with some light pollution. They filter out specific wavelengths of light to create a high contrast to make nebulae clearer and more visible, where normally, we may not be able to see it with our eyes alone.

Zhumell 1.25 Inch High Performance Moon & Sky-Glow Filter

This filter increases the contrast of deep-sky objects like emission nebulae and darkens the background sky by blocking mercury vapor light transmissions and enhancing transmission in the hydrogen beta, doubly ionized oxygen and hydrogen alpha regions of the spectrum.

Zhumell 1.25 Inch Variable Polarizing Filter #3 35-40% Transmission

This filter is perfect for lunar viewing. Dial in just the right filtration for the perfect, comfortable view. Like a dimmer switch for your eyepiece, this filter makes viewing the bright moon much more comfortable and really brings out more detail and greatly improves contrast.

This filter consists of two glass filters that rotate allowing you to adjust the amount of light transmission allowed through the filter.

CHOKING HAZARD - small parts may pose a risk to children under 6 yrs.

I bought these filters about a week ago [...]These filters go for [$] or more for one UHC or OIII.The whole kit is perfect for anyone wanting a better view.Last night I used all the filters with my 10 inch Zhumell Dob looking at the Orion Nebula under light polluted suburban skies. (Results will be much better under Little or no light pollution skies)UHC showed the best results for me because it showed most of the nebula and showed some of the stars too.The OIII showed more of the Orion nebula but less stars. like it should. I saw the whole cup of the Orion nebula plus more nebula details of clouds. I was amazed.The light pollution filter does help contrast a bit but not drastically. I have not tried this on the moon yet though which it is for mostly. The moon filter seems to be a lot better than most though. The variable motion seems smooth and tighter.I have bought the Orion Variable Moon filter before and it just doesn't compare. I havent tried these on anything else expect the Orion nebula but the results thus far are great!Overall these filters probably are just as good as the more expensive ones. Definitely a need for anyone with a 6 inch or larger telescope.I wouldn't recommend the OIII filter for anyone with a smaller aperture than 6 inches because the view is just too dim and doesn't show enough. Not enough light to be filtered.The UHC, Moon, and LIght Pollution filter is a definite for anyone though.I would recommend also buying a better light pollution filter as the Zhumell just doesn't have enough coating on it.

The sky-glow seemed to help moderate suburban light pollution a bit, but the other filters merely darkened images and reduced contrast, even in a dark sky. As a newbie amateur astronomer, I'm not sure what I was expecting, but these filters were underwhelming. Perhaps in time as I gain experience, I will learn to appreciate their subtle benefits. I'll give them a 3-star just to give them the benefit of the doubt.

Comments about Zhumell 1.25 Inch SEE IT ALL Telescope Filter Set:

Aside from the cases being difficult to play around with in the dark I would recommend these filters. The O-iii filter was what I really wanted but I figured getting the rest of the filters in the same package was not going to hurt. The O-iii did a very nice job of bringing out features in the Orion Nebula that are difficult to appreciate without it. I used a 10-inch reflector with mildly light-polluted skies. Over all there is significant experience enhancement. I hope when I get out of town and have no sub-zero temps I will have a chance to fully appreciate what the filters can manage.

Comments about Zhumell 1.25 Inch SEE IT ALL Telescope Filter Set:

The filters perform well in dark conditions. Comparing the sky glow filter, it is ok however other brands perform a tad better, still you cannot beat the price. OIII Filter and UHC Filter are grade, some "ghosting" on bright objects; you can counter that with one part of the Variable Polarizing Filter. Bottom line: if you are on a tied budge this is a good deal for a starter set.

This set is an inexpensive way to explore the utility of filters. There is improved contrast with some DSOs, but don't expect miracles.

Comments about Zhumell 1.25 Inch SEE IT ALL Telescope Filter Set:

Good economical filter set for beginners. Sky-Glow helps reduce light pollution. Polarizing filter works great for looking at the moon. However, they do not thread well with other brand filters when stacking. The cases are difficult to open especially in cold weather. Otherwise, a good set of filters for starters.
