Why use color filters?

Visit color filters slightly attenuate brightness, reducing the risk of overexposure and
increases overall contrast. They make it possible to distinguish fine details invisible to the naked eye without filtering.
Indispensable for amateurs looking to exploit the full potential of their telescope.
