It's the perfect filter for viewing emission nebula from light polluted skies or for boosting the contrast of nebula from dark sky sites. The advanced technology coatings enable the filter to achieve an outstanding transmission of over 97% across the entire passband with total blockage of prominent light pollution lines. This translates to maximum image brightness and contrast. Owners of smaller 4"-10" telescopes will especially appreciate the high efficiency and larger scope users will love the rich star fields and detailed subtle nebular shadings that are left intact. The Baader UHC-S manages to improve on the contrast of the typical broadband or so-called "Deep Sky" filters. Sky background is darker and contrast of emission nebulae are noticeably improved. Most other "UHC" filters tend to excessively darken the sky and star fields leaving the nebulae looking artificial and flat set against an empty background. The high transmission sharp cutoffs and more moderate 60nm passband of the Baader UHC-S filter retains a more natural view yet significantly boosts overall contrast. Imagers will appreciate the broader passband and inclusion of an extremely efficient H-Alpha passband (>99% @656nm) as well as the extreme optical quality. At the heart of the Baader UHC-S filters are their special fineoptical substrate polishing process and advanced coating design. The result is a filter that imparts no image degradation unlike other filters. Cleaning or exposure to moisture some other filters even resort to sandwiching their delicate coatings between two layers of filter glass resulting in potential blurred or double images. The combination of hardened coatings and fineoptical substrate of the Baader UHC-S avoids this image degradation. ## Images ![Baader Planetarium UHC-S Nebula Filter - 2" FUHC-2 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61WhDUlCFwL.jpg) ![Baader Planetarium UHC-S Nebula Filter - 2" FUHC-2 - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51mmN4SxRhL.jpg) ![Baader Planetarium UHC-S Nebula Filter - 2" FUHC-2 - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61A0dg02AUL.jpg) ![Baader Planetarium UHC-S Nebula Filter - 2" FUHC-2 - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41CWXcZVqcL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful *by J***G on Reviewed in the United States on July 28, 2020* Absolutely makes a difference in your direct natural viewing of emission nebulae. I can't yet attest to how well it holds up on first night photography, but on first night natural viewing it really is spectacular. Astrophotography is a trick of the eye, and something your eye will never naturally see because human eyes don't work that way.Not even with an umpteen billion dollar telescope will you ever look thru a scope and lens and see hubble images no matter how dark your skies are. The only way you see images like that is by spending thousands on money pit gear, treking off to the darkest skies, then spend hours or days photoshopping the hell out of your pictures. Except Orion of course, no matter how many times you see it Orion remains breathtaking.But even to the naked eye on other nebulae you will see dispersion of red and blue across nebula fields that look like aberration - but aren't with this filter. Even under heavy city light pollution. Love it! well worth the money upon first impression. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Great Nebula Filter *by C***Y on Reviewed in the United States on August 10, 2018* I’ve used this on many nebula, and it will separate the lights and darks across the field of view quite nicely. Waited a while to review and after a hundred hours under the stars I’ve had success with this Filter. Know the reasonable limitations, aperture will improve the results of this Filter, my fathers 12” dob really does well with most nebula using this Filter, however my 4” APO is a little more dim, and so unless imaged some nebula will look similar to the original unfiltered view. As far as bandwidth, there’s a good range, but not too much light, making nebula pop-out better than the unfiltered view, but again aperture will maximize the benefit of the Filter. Stars look a nice blueish white while viewing, and focus to a nice pinpoint with no noticeable aberrations, it’s a view to get used to. I have yet to do any serious imaging with this Filter, but it would be a great imaging Filter to add to a collection. Last note, somewhere here it was mentioned that the Baader Planetarium filters wouldn’t thread to Orion diagonals and eyepieces, it fits all of my Orion gear like a glove, so no worries there.Clear Skies ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars Works *by S***E on Reviewed in the United States on April 1, 2019* Works --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/12249760-baader-planetarium-uhc-s-nebula-filter-2-fuhc-2](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/12249760-baader-planetarium-uhc-s-nebula-filter-2-fuhc-2) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-06-07*
