Q3: I have the beginners Telestar 60AZ-A. 1.Will these filters fit the 60AZ-A? 2.Are these filters narrowband, or nebula filters? The text Im reading says that narrowband, or nebula filters are a better choice for viewing emission nebulas. Thanks, Chris
A: The #3200 Lunar & Planetary Filter Set is primary for viewing the Moon and planets. The filters will fit just about any 1.25-inch eyepiece, including those in your Telestar. As your text indicates, narrowband, nebular filters are the best ones for viewing emission nebulae. Here's the URL for a narrowband nebular filter that eliminates most artificial light; just paste it into your browser's address window to see the filter: http://telescopes.com/products/Meade_908N_Narrowband_Nebular_Filter_1.25_Inch_18373.html.

A: We recommend the Celestron UHC/LPR filter. It blocks wavelengths of artificial light, leaving you with an ultra high-contrast image. Here's the URL; just paste it into your browser's address window: http://telescopes.com/products/celestron-uhclpr-filter-1-25-inch-32972.html.
Q5: I have a Celestron Casegrain 8" 1 1/4. Can I use the Meade #3200 Lunar & Planetary Color Filter Set filter ?
A: Yes, you can use the Meade #3200 set with any telescope having a 1.25-inch format.
