Astronomik L-2 Clip-Filter

The L-2 acts as a luminance filter that blocks ultraviolet and infrared light while allowing visible light to pass through. By cutting out these wavelengths, it helps reduce star bloating and improves the overall sharpness and contrast of your deep-sky images.

The filter is designed to sit securely inside your camera body, directly in front of the sensor. It snaps into place easily, meaning you don't need to worry about threading it onto a lens, making it compatible with a wide range of optics.

Because the filter is placed between the lens and the sensor, it does not interfere with your lens's autofocus mechanism. However, since it blocks specific wavelengths, you may notice a slight shift in color balance, which is easily corrected during post-processing.

Yes, the filter is built to be highly resistant to scratches, humidity, and aging. It is designed to withstand the rigors of field use, ensuring it remains clear and effective over many years of night-sky sessions.

The clip-in design is independent of the lens you use, so it works with any lens that fits your camera body. This makes it a versatile tool if you frequently switch between different prime or zoom lenses during your shoots.
