Neutral Density Filtering
With a neutral density filter design, this visual add-on reduces incoming light to just 25% of its original brightness without adding the tint present in some similar filters. This will enhance your lunar observations, revealing fainter details in the seas, craters, and peaks, especially in brighter phases of the Moon. Shading your view can also benefit your observations of some other celestial objects; by taming the twinkle of double stars to assist with splitting them, and reducing Venus’ radiance to help bring some of the faint detail visible in its atmosphere some a bit more to the forefront. This effective and easy to use filtering makes the Apertura ND96-0.6 Neutral Density Filter an excellent addition to your visual accessory toolkit!
