The O-III narrowband filter is specially designed for the observation of diffuse and planetary nebulae.

The O-III narrow band-pass filter isolates just the two doubly ionized oxygen lines (496 and 501nm) emitted by diffuse, planetary and extremely faint nebulae.

O-III filters are best suited to telescopes with 8" or larger apertures and can produce near-photographic views of the Veil, Ring, Dumbbell, Orion and many other nebulae. 

Effective under even heavily light-polluted skies!

Amazing value!

The Skywatcher OIII filter gives a wider bandpass than the very narrow Baader OIII, so the view is not so dark, and yet it still provides incredible contrast on the right targets, such as the Veil Nebula in Cygnus. I've seen that with an 80mm scope and this filter. Stars stay as distinct points, so it seems to have a good accurate surface.

I would recommend this filter very highly as it does the job as well as any, and at a very affordable price.
