Antlia 3nm Pro OIII filter

The Antlia OIII Pro narrow-band filter optimizes the width at half-maximum (FWHM) to 3nm. This narrow width enhances the contrast of emitting targets by reducing spurious background signal. It is designed to offer 88% transmission at 500.7nm wavelength, guaranteeing maximum signal and excellent definition of nebulous structures.

Wider narrowband filters generally result in a significant loss of transmission due to center wavelength shifts (CWL). The 3nm Pro filter guarantees >88% transmission in a ±1nm range around the center band, enabling compatibility with high-speed optics up to f/3 without significant signal loss.

Out-of-band rejection is rated at OD5 (0.001%), offering an excellent signal-to-noise ratio and effective cutting of spurious wavelengths. This filter is designed to minimize halos around bright stars, thanks to its sharp spectral profile.

Application and performance

  • High transmission and narrow bandwidth for maximum contrast
  • Steep spectral profile to limit halos
  • One-piece substrate to avoid internal reflections
  • Target objects: OIII nebulae, planetary nebulae, Wolf-Rayet, supernova remnants
  • Suitable for polluted skies or dark sites
  • Extends imaging time even with the Moon
  • Compatible up to f/3 without significant signal loss
  • Blackened edges for unmounted filters to avoid internal reflections
  • Optical reliability reduces post-processing retouching
  • Specially designed for deep-sky objects containing OIII emissions
