(spectra of various bar filters, # 8, # 12, # 21, # 23A, # 25, # 38A, # 47, # 56, # 80A, # 82A, measurements on a Varian Cary spectrophotometer 100, July 2015)

Connection of ALL astronomical filters with the exception of solar film filters (which are filters for the lens) is accomplished by screwing the filter into the frame of the eyepiece from the opposite side than applying the eye (ie from the side that we put in the eyepiece extractor) . The filters can be additionally connected with each other, because they have threads on both sides of the luminaire.
