WL Filters

#1

Post by LDW47 »


Has anyone did a comparison between a Baader WL solar film filter and the Thousand Oaks solar film ( not glass ) filter. If so which is preferred and for what reason. Cost is not an answer, only performance ! I use an Altair Astro 2" wedge on my 2" scopes, this one is for occasional 1.25" viewing with my newly acquired small refractor.

I have used both films including a 1000 Oaks glass filter, the Baader film has better resolution for seeing fine details over the 1000 Oaks.
