    I picked one up for my C90 Mak for use as a solar scope a while back, but I haven't been able to use it all. Stupid real life and work, but it feels like a quality piece of kit. Glad to hear it delivers good views too!

    I have the ASSF version for my ZenithStar71ED. Images are very nice if used with a Baader CWL filter. I took this image from a 10 second untracked video taken with a ZWO ASI174MM camera.

    Thanks! I really like the filter, works perfect with my scope. As you can see, all I use is a manual mount, grab as many frames as I can while the sun drifts through the field of view, and then stack/process.

    This was my first image ever with the Bader AstroSolar filter, combined with CWL/IR Block. I was astounded!

    Hi!

    These pictures were made using MakC90, Baader White Solar, Astronomik UHC , Baader L, Baader Red and Compact Camera (Canon Powershot 120SX). Single Shot. It is not the best way to do this capture. Some details are visible. It shows how Baader White Solar Filter allows good Solar images.
