Lumicon Comet Filter LF3070

It took a while but my Lumicon Comet Filter finally came.

Looks OK, the threads fit my Baader diagonals and the 19mm Panoptic, so that's a good start as earlier Lumicon filter threads weren't always as accommodating. I'm guessing I'll need a good 3mm exit pupil at least. It will be interesting to compare it with my Astronomik UHC-E which also passes a couple of Swan bands. All I need now is the right kind of comet lol.

Yes, that's a prime contender at the moment. Unfortunately February weather isn't as predictable lol.

I've been doing some further thread compatibility tests (15mm Altair UltraFlat, 10mm, 15mm Luminos, 14mm Baader Morpheus, assorted Tele Vues). So far there have been no problems.
