By capturing separate Luminance, Red, Green, and Blue channels and combining them, the set yields natural color across galaxies, star clusters, and broadband targets. The 2\" format provides full illumination for larger imaging circles. Each filter uses a high-quality optical glass substrate with a multi-layer composite coating.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWho It's For.\u003c\/strong\u003e The set suits imagers running larger-sensor monochrome cameras and 2\" filter systems who want full-color results with the resolution and sensitivity advantages of mono capture, whether photographing galaxies, reflection nebulae, or star fields.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features \u0026amp; Design.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eComplete LRGB channel coverage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Luminance, Red, Green, and Blue filters combine into balanced true-color images.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHigh throughput:\u003c\/strong\u003e approximately 95% transmittance in-band keeps exposures efficient.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOff-band blocking:\u003c\/strong\u003e OD3 blocking (less than 0.1% off-band transmission) with NIR cutoff across 700–1100nm holds channel separation clean.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2\" clear aperture:\u003c\/strong\u003e the larger format supports bigger sensors and fast focal ratios with even illumination.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrecision surfaces:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\/4 lambda surface accuracy on a 2.0 ±0.03 mm substrate supports sharp, consistent focus across channels.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOptical\/Mechanical Design.\u003c\/strong\u003e Each filter uses a multi-layer composite coating on a 2.0 ±0.03 mm high-quality optical glass substrate polished to 1\/4 lambda on both surfaces. In-band transmittance is about 95%, with OD3 off-band blocking (\u0026lt;0.1% transmission) and near-infrared blocking from 700–1100nm to keep the Red, Green, and Blue channels well separated and the infrared leak controlled.
