Key Features

  • Safe Solar Photography – ND5: Blocks 99.999% of sunlight for full protection of your camera’s sensor and optics during solar imaging.
  • Premium Optical Glass: Helios Solar Glass® delivers crisp, high-contrast white-light detail and long-lasting durability for years of use.
  • Threaded Aluminum Design: Screws directly onto standard camera lens threads for a secure fit; available in sizes 37 mm–95 mm.
  • Built for Photographers: Ideal for capturing fine solar structure, sunspots, and eclipse phases with DSLR or mirrorless cameras.

How to Choose Your Size: Check your lens or lens cap for the “Ø” symbol followed by a number (e.g., Ø77 mm). Select the filter that matches that diameter for a perfect threaded fit.

What You’ll Capture

The ND5 White Light Helios Solar Glass® filter reveals the Sun’s photosphere in a bright white-orange tone, allowing high-resolution photography of sunspots, granulation, and limb darkening with outstanding sharpness and natural color balance.

Safety Note

For front-mounted use only on optical instruments. Not for direct eye viewing or use as eclipse glasses. This filter safely reduces solar intensity to ND5 levels for cameras and telescopes. ISO 12312-2:2015 applies only to handheld and eyewear solar viewers; therefore, this filter is not certified under that standard but is manufactured to meet ND5 safety requirements for optical filters.

Warranty & Returns
