SAFETY FIRST: Observing the Sun without the proper protection may result in serious personal injury, including permanent eye damage and blindness, and/or damage to equipment. Never point an optic at the sun without an approved solar filter on the front of the optic. For direct solar viewing, viewing the sun through an optic, or when using cameras with an optical viewfinder, ensure your filter is ISO 12312-2 (also written as ISO 12312-2:2015) certified. Never use photographic neutral density filters for direct solar viewing, viewing the sun through an optic, or when using cameras with an optical viewfinder.

Adapt your conventional nighttime Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope (SCTs) to safely view the sun with Celestron‘s EclipSmart White-Light Solar Filter. Designed specifically for select 6″ models in their catalogue, the filter ring is modelled on the scope’s original lens cap for a safe and snug fit. For enhanced safety, the filter comes with two touch-fastener straps and four tabs that adhere to the filter and OTA to make sure the filter doesn’t accidentally come off.
Made of a proprietary Mylar film, the filter is ISO 12312-2 compliant for safe solar viewing, blocking 99.999% of intense light across the entire visible spectrum and 100% of harmful ultraviolet (UV) and infrared (IR) radiation; resulting in high-contrast views of the sun in a neutral colour. At just 2.6 ounces, the filter will provide the safety required to observe the sun and all phases of a solar eclipse without adding significant weight to the front of your OTA.
