The Benro 150 x 150mm Master Series TrueNight Filter is designed to reduce the appearance of light pollution in images

or video that include the night sky and illumination from artificial light sources. This effect can be obtained when this filter is

used on a film camera system with daylight film installed, or on a digital camera system with its daylight white balance setting

selected.

Light pollution occurs in areas of the night sky that are above or near concentrated and intense sources of artificial light such as cities. These

light sources can include exterior and interior lamps for commercial or residential buildings, brightly lit advertisements such as billboards,

streetlamps, as well as sports and entertainment venues. Together, they can result in a type of light pollution known as skyglow, where individual

stars, the Milky Way, and other astronomical features in the night sky are obscured. Additionally, artificial lights clustered together can become

difficult to individually discern. Light pollution from these "cluttered" sources can become a source of distraction within an image and can resemble

overexposed areas of glare.

When used, the Benro 150 x 150mm Master Series TrueNight Filter can improve the results of nighttime images by absorbing the yellow light from

sodium-vapor lamps, mercury-vapor lamps, or low Color Rendering Index LEDs, common light sources within urban areas. By preventing the dominant

wavelengths of light associated with the color of those lamps from being recorded, the visibility of astronomical objects is enhanced, and where they

appear, artificial light sources are more clearly defined with less glare and improved contrast.

This filter is compatible with filter holders that can accommodate 2mm thick, 150 x 150mm rectangular filters and is constructed from Schott B270

glass for increased optical clarity as well as color fidelity. To prevent internal ghosting and reflections, each glass surface includes multiple layers of

anti-reflection coating. These coatings also offer greater protection to the filter substrate and help it to stay clean for longer than with uncoated filters.

The nano coating associated with Benro Master Series filters provides an additional 13th layer over each side of this filter, resulting in an improved

beading effect when in contact with water for greater cleaning efficiency.

A plastic case and a padded pouch for storage and transport are provided.
