Baader Astrophotography Replacement IR filter for 350D digital camera

Welcome to the Curdridge telescope observatory astrophotography blog. We explore many aspects of astronomy and astrophotography especially including projects such as telescope mounts. We have a Newtonian reflecting telescope in our budget observatory made from fence panels. Most of our imaging is done using Astrodon narrowband filters and cooled astronomy CCD cameras.

Luckily, several manufactures sell replacement IR filters for these cameras. These allow transmission of almost all SII and Ha light, but block off any longer wavelengths. This mean that the camera is able to operate normally in terrestrial situations with a custom white balance selected, but on the telescope, all the vital hydrogen alpha and SII light can get through.
