Astronomik Luminance Filter

This filter captures the full visible light spectrum, which helps increase the signal-to-noise ratio and overall sharpness of your images. By isolating the luminance channel, you can gather high-detail data before layering in color information from other filters.

No, this specific clip-in filter is designed exclusively for Canon EOS cameras with an APS-C sensor. It will not fit full-frame Canon bodies or other camera brands.

The filter sits securely inside the camera body, directly in front of the sensor. It does not interfere with the operation of your lenses, though it is intended for use with cameras that have the mirror locked up or in live-view mode.

While it is technically possible, this filter is specifically optimized for deep-sky astrophotography. Using it during the day may result in unusual color shifts since it is designed to manage light transmission for celestial imaging.

The filter features a durable, scratch-resistant coating, but it should still be handled with care. If dust or smudges appear, use a high-quality lens cleaning solution and a microfiber cloth to gently wipe the surface.
