Baader U-Venus-Filter 2 (350nm) - Unleashing the Enigma of Venusian Clouds

Dive into the realm of unseen beauty with the Baader U-Venus-Filter 2 (350nm), a groundbreaking filter that allows amateurs to capture the elusive cloud structures on Venus. This filter opens the door to deep UV imaging, a spectral region previously inaccessible to enthusiasts.

Key Features:

1. Unprecedented Cloud Imaging: For the first time, amateur astronomers can now successfully record intricate cloud structures on Venus, revealing a new dimension of planetary exploration.
2. Advanced Coating Technologies: The latest coating technologies empower the Baader Venus Filter to transmit light from 300nm to 400nm, with an impressive peak transmission of 80%. This exceptional performance is achieved through a sophisticated 20-layer dielectric coating stack on a specially polished UG-11 substrate.
3. Efficient Spectral Rejection: The filter ensures complete rejection of wavelengths outside the crucial spectral region from 320nm to 390nm, providing unparalleled efficiency and contrast for Venus imaging.
4. High Optical Quality: Leveraging the same high optical quality and features as other Baader filters, the U-Venus-Filter guarantees the highest contrast and sharpest images possible.
5. Versatile UV Imaging: Widely used in UV imaging for landscapes, florals, and forensic applications, this filter continues to be the top choice among UV imaging enthusiasts.
6. Enhanced Transmission and Blocking: The latest 1.25" filter boasts even higher transmission and improved out-of-band blocking, ensuring optimal performance for diverse UV imaging applications.
7. Compatibility: The filter cell features a standard M28.5x0.6 thread, providing seamless compatibility with a range of optical setups.

Usage Recommendations:

• The Baader Venus filter is specifically designed for imaging Venus with Webcams, Digital, and CCD cameras. Visual observation is not possible due to the human eye's insensitivity to UV light.
• For successful Venus imaging, we recommend using a UV-sensitive astro CCD camera (e.g., SBIG ST-2000XM) paired with at least a 5" telescope or a webcam with an 8" telescope.

Embark on a celestial journey like never before with the Baader U-Venus-Filter 2 (350nm) - where innovation meets the mysteries of the cosmos. Capture Venus in Unprecedented Detail!
