The result is bright, colorful nebulae images that “pop” with detail against the black sky background.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHow does the Nebula Filter for Origin work? Emission nebulae primarily emit at discrete wavelengths of light—Hα at 656nm, Hβ at 486nm, and OIII at 496\/501nm. By strategically transmitting only these wavelengths of light and blocking the rest of the spectrum, the filter dramatically reduces the effect of light pollution. The “bad” light is blocked while the “good” light associated with emission nebulae passes through to Origin’s sensor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou’ll immediately notice much higher contrast in your images, especially from your light-polluted backyard! And since the transmission at the critical wavelengths is so high, the nebula will not be dimmed—only the background will be blacker. You’ll also notice some contrast improvement in images of nebulae from darker skies, as the filter serves well in blocking natural skyglow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNebula Hunting\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Nebula Filter is perfect for imaging emission nebulae like the North America Nebula (NGC 7000), Lagoon Nebula (M8), Orion Nebula (M42), the Carina Nebula (NGC 3372), and dozens more. The imaging filter offers maximum light transmission in the key Hα-Hβ-OIII wavelengths, producing high contrast for emission nebulae like these.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe transmission spectrum for the Nebula Filter is 85% or greater at key wavelengths (486nm, 496nm\/501nm, 656nm) and less than 0.5% transmission elsewhere. As a narrowband filter, it blocks much of the visible spectrum and only lets these specific wavelengths through. Because of this, you should not use this filter while observing or imaging broadband emission objects, such as galaxies and star clusters. For those objects, you’ll achieve the best results by removing the nebula filter and reinstalling Origin’s clear optical window.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg style=\"float: none;\" alt=\"Nebulea filter graph for the Celestron Origin\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1935\/4371\/files\/Nebfiltertransmissiongraph.png?v=1702668649\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOther similar imaging filters on the market have much narrower bandpasses at the critical Hα-Hβ-OIII wavelengths. Unfortunately, these filters block much of the incoming Hα-Hβ-OIII light for an f\/2.2 optical system like Origin’s 6” RASA. This is because a RASA brings light into the filter at a steeper angle, which causes a spectral shift. If you use filters not explicitly designed for use at f\/2.2, some of the light from the nebula will be blocked, resulting in a dimmer image. The Nebula Filter for Origin was custom-engineered to work at f\/2.2, so none of the “good” light from the nebula is inadvertently blocked by the filter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBody and Storage\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe filter features a machined aluminum black anodized cell with a knurled rim for easy grip during installation.  We’ve added anti-reflection coatings to help suppress reflections from the glass.

The Ultima 10x50 binocular has a wide 6° field of view, just over three hundred feet wide when measured at a distance of 1,000 yards. It’s the perfect choice for watching deer trot through a meadow or a home run ball fly into the bleachers without moving your binoculars. But the possibilities don’t stop there. Ultima binoculars are great for almost any activity, including sporting events, sightseeing, birding and wildlife observation, hiking, and more!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese classically styled binoculars use their Porro prism optical design to provide optimal image clarity and depth of field. Their widely spaced objective lenses enable enhanced triangulation between binocular and subject, presenting the observer with a rich, three-dimensional image that only traditional Porro prism binoculars can offer. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCoatings and Prisms\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUltima binoculars feature fully multi-coated optics. A binocular can be considered “fully multi-coated” when all glass surfaces are coated with multiple layers of anti-reflectivity coatings so that the maximum amount of light passes through the glass to the eye. The prisms inside Ultima binoculars are made of high quality BaK-4 glass so that more light is reflected off their internal faces and passes through to the eye. Taken together, the fully multi-coated lenses and BaK-4 prisms maximize light transmission for the remarkably bright, highly detailed images.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Body\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA durable, synthetic rubber-armored, aluminum housing protects your Ultima\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e®\u003c\/span\u003e binoculars from damage without weighing you down.
