Hi all
As the moon will soon be returning to the night sky I was wondering on a tried and tested good quality moon filter for the Skywatcher Dobsonian.
I came across a couple of OIII Filters claiming near-photographic views of nebulae. Are these mainly for astro photography and don't make much difference for viewing? Also noticed a Skywatcher Light Pollution Filter, is this another astro photography filter or would it help viewing planets from built up areas?
Lastly I was wanting to buy a 2" eyepiece. I already have a 25mm wide angle and a 10mm with a 2x Tal barlow. All 1.25" so what would be the best option for a 2"?
Appreciate the continued advice
Tim

Thanx Eamonn, I'll check those out.
What was that hand grenade of an eyepiece you own? Not that I'll be forking out that much anytime soon, just interested.

That was a Televue Panoptic 35mm!
