I was wondering if anyone has used a Seymour Solar filter? If so, how were the results? Thanks
Kev

I have used the film extensively and it is good filter material. The glass filter is very similar to a thousand oaks filter. The image is yellow/orange. As for detail against baader or others, during my solar sessions sunspots have been elusive.
Welcome to CN.
Steve at seymour has been great to deal with. I purchased solar viewers for my science classes and they are a big hit with the students.

Thanks Terry, I have been looking at different solar filters and these seem in my price range.
