Celestron's filters are made of high quality, solid plane parallel glass. They have an anti-reflection coating to help prevent glare and aberrations. Not only are these highly useful filters and combinations, but they also provide an economical way to add versatility to your filter collection.

#96 ND 25% T - Density 0.6
Moon - Excellent for reducing irradiation, glare and subject brightness. Colors are unaltered, as light is transmitted uniformly over the entire spectrum. Each model performs somewhat differently, depending on the brightness of the moon. Planets - Stacking in combination with color filters lowers transmission, but retains true color balance for specific applications. Reduces glare on brighter planets and minimizes irradiation. Binary (Double) Stars - Helpful in splitting binary stars, because it reduces glare and diffraction effects around the brighter star of the binary pair.
