Description
Who said you have to be in the dark to do astronomy! Turning your telescope to the Sun is fun and educational. Watch the march of giant sunspots, the clouds of glowing vapor in the photosphere, and solar granulation detail. But be sure to protect your precious vision with safe Orion solar filters! Looking at the Sun without one, even for an instant, can permanently damage your eyes. Superior to Mylar These full-aperture optical glass filters deliver superb views of the Sun, without risk to your eyes. While more expensive than Mylar filters, Orion solar filters provide better contrast, a more natural yellow-orange color rather than blue and are more durable. They're ideal for photographing the Sun too. The glass elements are machine-polished and triple-coated with an advanced nickel-chromium stainless steel alloy for a scratch-resistant surface. The filter passes only a fraction of the incoming light, rejecting harmful ultraviolet and infrared radiation. Each filter is mounted in an aluminum cell that slide-fits over the objective lenses of the binoculars. CAUTION: Never look at the Sun, either directly or through binoculars, without a professionally made protective solar filter installed that completely covers the front of the instrument, or permanent eye damage could result.

Product review & video
hi i'm ken from orion telescopes and binoculars and in this video i'm showing you the orion solar filters the kit of two 450 millimeter binoculars I'll show you how to properly sized them to fit snugly so they're not going to come off if they include some shims in order to get the proper size and then once you've got it on there you're ready to start observing the Sun ten by fifty binoculars like these are great for the bigger sunspots any day when the Sun is out or when there's an eclipse you can see the partial phases with a pair of filters like this so let me show you how to install them and go outside and look at the Sun the solar filters for our 50 millimeter binoculars fit a little loose onto the binoculars because each of our binoculars are slightly different sized so we include this little shim material that you can use to size them properly without the shim it's gonna fall off
