$Picture of Solar Filter for StarMax/Apex 102, AstroView 100, SkyView Pro 100, ED 80 and ED 100 Refractors$

This full-aperture optical glass filter delivers superb views of the Sun, without risk to your eyes. While more expensive than Mylar filters, Orion solar filters provide better contrast, a more natural yellow-orange—color rather than blue—and are more durable. They’re ideal for photographing the Sun, too.

T-Max 40 By Coronado Instruments

Active flares and coronal mass ejections (CME) travel at high velocity towards the observer, which results in their wavelength being Doppler shifted shorter than Ha. If the velocity is high enough, this wavelength could be outside the passband of the filter and the feature would not be observable. The T-Max allows the user to de-tune the Solarmax slightly to bring such phenomena into better visibility.
