Levenhuk 1.25" Lunar Filter This filter is necessary for long-term observations of the moon. The moon at a phase of more than 80% is very bright, so it can blind you. That's why sometimes you cannot study it in detail. This filter reduces its "luminosity", allowing observations even at full moon.
Levenhuk 1.25" Optical Filter #8 (Light-yellow) This filter is used to observe seas and dust clouds on Mars, details of Jupiter's belts as well as Uranus, Neptune, and the Moon. You can use it for observing comets. It features high light transmission, so that it is suitable for telescopes with the low aperture. It reduces chromatic aberration in refractors.
Levenhuk 1.25" Optical Filter #11 (Yellow-green) The filter with high light transmission that can be used with small aperture telescopes. Through this filter Saturn, especially the Cassini division as well as Mars and Jupiter are well observed. In refractors, it minimizes chromatic distortion.
Levenhuk 1.25" Optical Filter #12 (Yellow) Like the previous one, this filter can be recommended to owners of small telescopes. It transmits light well, emphasizes the contrast between the details on the Moon, Mars, and Jupiter. It can be used for observing Venus and comets.
Levenhuk 1.25" Optical Filter #23A (Light-red) It is recommended for apertures from 130mm. The filter is used for the detailed study of Mars and the Moon as well as atmospheric phenomena on Saturn and Jupiter. It can be used for twilight observations of Mercury and daytime observations of Venus. Comet tails are clearly distinguishable through this filter.
Levenhuk 1.25" Optical Filter #25 (Red) The filter for telescopes with an aperture from 150mm. It is an excellent choice for observing the polar caps and seas on Mars, cloud formations on Jupiter, Saturn, and details on the lunar surface. It is occasionally used for observing Mercury and Venus and is indispensable during daytime observations of the Solar system planets.
Levenhuk 1.25" Optical Filter #56A (Light-green) This filter can be recommended to owners of telescopes with an aperture of 130mm and higher. It is excellent for the detailed study of lunar craters and is suitable for observing Saturn and Jupiter. It can also be used for observing Venus.
Levenhuk 1.25" Optical Filter #80A (Blue) This filter can be used even with small aperture telescopes because it transmits the light well. It is indispensable for studying the Great Red Spot on Jupiter and details at the poles of Saturn. The filter is also widely used for observing the Moon, Mars, Venus, and Mercury.
