This LRGB filter set allows you to use your monochrome CCD camera to put together high resolution colour images.
Monochrome CCD cameras usually offer higher resolution than colour cameras. But how do you obtain a high quality colour image with them? - you can, using this LRGB filter set which consists of four parts:
·luminance filter - for the monochrome channel
·red filter
·green filter
·blue filter
The individual images from each of these four filters are combined to produce a higher resolution colour image. That is because each colour channel uses all the pixels on your camera, a very different story from colour cameras.
This set is best used in conjunction with a filter wheel, which allows you to easily change to a new filter after each set of exposures by simply rotating the filter wheel. The result is that, image by image, the components of the final, composite, colour astronomy image are exposed.

Can't comment on the glass here, because I could not even thread them into my 2" QHYCFW3 filter wheel. Thought I would give them a try because of the price and hoping for a good value but due to the issue above, I could not use them.

After finally having some time to use these filters, i must say that they work very well. Except for the green filter. For some reason the green filter gives me triangular stars. After some research i found that it's due to pinched optics. All the other filters work great, and i couldn't be happier with them. However not being able to use the green filter is making true color images very difficult. It took some time to verify that it was in fact the filter that was causing the problem. But it is indeed the issue. I have tried loosening the filter in it's mount and making sure it is clean.Unfortunately it's simply useless.I like astromania, and have had good luck with their products. Just be sure to do a good run on all your filters when you get them :)

Despite the price they work very well on my Celestron RASA at F2.2 which is surprising.
