This 20-stop, 100 x 100mm Haida Red Diamond Filter is designed specifically for solar photography applications. Made of optical glass with multiple coats of antireflective nano coating on both sides, it provides a 20-stop light reduction for images of the sun that are detailed but not overexposed. A light-blocking gasket protects your images from unwanted exposure. The filter fits the Haida M10 and M10-11 filter holders and comes with a metal case for transport and storage.
This filter is designed specifically for photography applications. This filter is not suitable for direct solar viewing with the naked eye, including with optical viewfinders.
- Check the solar filter for damage before each use by holding it up to a bright light (not the sun). Secure the filter properly by screwing it fully onto the lens.
- The Haida 6.0 Filter is not suitable eye protection for extended view of sun or solar eclipses. Do not look directly or indirectly into the sun without appropriate eye protection.
- The Solar Filter should be installed in front of the camera lens or telescope before trying to align it with the sun. Point the camera away from the sun when attaching and removing the solar filter.
- Do not use an optical viewfinder when aligning your camera or telescope with the sun. It is recommended to use the live view feature of the camera for aligning it with the sun and for viewing.
- Do not leave a camera unattended where a child or inexperienced adult could point it at the sun without the filter adequately attached.
- The filter may absorb solar energy and get hot during use. Use extra care when removing it.
