This filter has made looking at the moon easier by taking the brightness down to make viewing more enjoyable
Is the obsession with reducing light pollution hindering our ability to appreciate the vastness of the universe? While filters like the SVBONY Moon Filter enhance our viewing experience, could they also dilute the raw beauty of the night sky and the natural wonder of celestial phenomena? How do we strike a balance between clarity and authenticity in our astronomical pursuits?
After my last star party at our club house a week ago, I used this filter on the 13 inch Dob we have to look at Jupiter. Wow what a view and a huge difference. This is the best personal view I ever had of Jupiter's cloud bands. Without this filter you had to strain your eyes to see any of the cloud bands even with a 13 inch telescope. Outstanding. Because I was using the 13 inch Dob Jupiter was so bright I actually suffered from white light glare. This Filter fixed all that. I can not say enough about of how good of a filter it is. Worth every penny.
As an amateur astronomer for 50 years let me say up front that I was not (past tense) a fan of telescope filters. It was my old and probably out dated opinion that they block more incoming light than they show and are worth. However, I have many friends who love them and have many different eyepiece filters in their collection.
So why did I buy this moon filter? Well because during a star party one of the our club members suggested it, while viewing a very bright half moon at the time. He told me that they have really improved. I can say first hand that he was right. While viewing the moon the glare was just about gone which allowed me to view much finer detail and make out very small craters that I was not able to view before the moon filter and the filter did this without being to dark. The old moon filter I had used forty years ago was useless and to dark so I never used it but this filter proved its wor

I have liked every lens product I have purchased from SVBONY and this moon filter is no exception. Great products at great prices. Very highly recommended.
I used this filter on Jupiter exclusively, and it really brings out its colors and adds contrast allowing you to see more detail. For the price I'm really satisfied, it really does make a difference!
