2" Solar Wedge (Herschel Wedge)

The Lunt 2" Solar Wedge (Herschel Wedge) is a precision-engineered solar filter designed for safe white-light observation and imaging of the Sun through refractor telescopes. Using a ceramic trapezoidal prism, it deflects approximately 95% of sunlight away from the optical path while preserving the full visual spectrum, delivering superior contrast and resolution compared to traditional objective filters. The integrated heat trap with built-in ND3.0 neutral density filter and polarizing light output enables detailed viewing of sunspots, surface granulation, and solar prominences, making it ideal for both visual observers and astrophotographers seeking the finest solar detail and image quality.
