Celestron 94119-A 1.25 inch Moon Filter - Suitable for Lunar Observation, Extra Bright Planets or Terrestrial Viewing Over Sand or Snow, Black

Used it on our AZ70 scope and it cuts the glow of the moon down good. Works as should.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:When its absolutely dark out is the best time to use this filterDuring the day time the moon looks yellowish which is to be expected but im happy none the less!

Works great although it rotates very easily making it a little difficult to keep it right where you want it while putting the lense in.

Great for sky watching of the moon 🌙

You can tell a pretty large difference between the amount of light reaching your eye using this piece. The full moon is still to bright to edge in all those details but it will take away some eye strain. As far as using it for photography, you will have to adjust coloring to get out the green tint. If you use lightroom, adjusting the temp to -5 and the hue to 5 will give you a kind of natural bluish tint. As I stated before the full moon is still a light pollution monster so your camera may do it better justice adjusting the ISO or frame speed. Maybe ISO 80 and 1/125 fs. But if you're looking at a Waning Gibbous this filter will help manage the ambiance so you can see those craters hiding off to the edge in the shadows. Pretty good for it's price. It also fits in both my celestron eye pieces and pylossl which is nice. Can switch between my newtonian reflector and celestron refractor without to much eyepiece play. I don't recommend for stargazing or looking for planets unless you're using a high power piece

This review is for the Celestron Moon Filter Kit. The kit includes 4 filters, ND96-0.9, ND96-0.6, ND96-0.3 and a Moon and Skyglow filter that is actually beneficial while looking at planets as well as the moon while viewing in an urban environment where light pollution is an issue. The filters are well made and the threads are cut well for easy installation on any 1.25 lens. I found the focusing to be sharp and clear. The case is accessible by turning the clear lid clockwise or counter clockwise to open or close the container. The moon chart is more novel than packed with information. Nonetheless, it is a helpful guide for those just starting out and servers a duel purpose by protecting the lenses while not in use. I believe this lens kit is an excellent value for the money, and would recommend it for beginners to intermediate users. Those who are more on the serious side of astrophotography should look for something that would be of a higher quality optics. However I’ve attached a picture taken with my iPhone using the ND96-0.6 lens and was very impressed with the results. Overall it’s hard to beat this kit for the quality and the price.

Am very pleased with the lense.

The outer diameter of this filter is smaller that the 1-1/4" barrel so that a lens cap fits too loosely to stay on. I am replacing this filter due to that inconvenience.
