The Lunt LS40FHa Solar Filter is a 40 mm aperture (no central obstruction) integrally tuned etalon for use on Lunt Dedicated 40 mm Telescopes - A Lunt Solar Systems Blocking Filter is REQUIRED and sold separately.

Because the LS40FHa Solar Filter has an estimated bandpass of <0.70 Angstrom it is capable of providing high contrast views of both surface and edge detail. Significantly, adding an additional etalon system (double-stacking) will reduce the bandpass to ~<0.50, allowing for higher resolution viewing and/or imaging.
