Filtering out certain bands of light can be very useful when observing astronomical objects. With the Cassini Color Filter Wheel, you simply switch eyepieces as you normally would. To switch filters, just rotate the dial on the Cassini Color Filter Wheel. The C.F.W. has three filter settings: Nebula, Planetary and Clear. The Nebular filter is great for filtering out light pollution such as ground light. UHC filters block a large fraction of light pollution, and bring out the details of nebulae. The Planetary filter is great for viewing the moon and planets by increasing contrast. 3rd slot is Empty to use additional filter of your choice or left empty so objects can be viewed normally without having to remove the Color Filter Wheel. Additionally the filters are universal 1.25 threaded filters so you can switch them out with other filters for more usability.
