Its advanced multi-layer dielectric coatings are plasma-assisted and ionbeam hardened for durability and scratch resistance. Designed for telescopes and cameras with 1.25" threads, it enhances contrast by approximately 30%, making it ideal for urban astronomers and astrophotographers seeking richer star fields and detailed nebular structures. ## Description Our 1-1/4" Light Pollution Reduction (LPR) Filters are designed to selectively reduce the transmission of certain wavelengths of light, specifically those produced by artificial light. This includes mercury vapor, and both high and low pressure sodium vapor lights and the unwanted natural light caused by neutral oxygen emission in our atmosphere (i.e. sky glow). The new ultra high contrast (UHC) LPR filter has improved contrast over the typical broadband filters. Sky background is darker, and contrast of emission nebulae are noticeably improved. The advanced technology coatings enable the filter to achieve an outstanding transmission of over 97% across the entire bandpass, with total blockage of prominent light pollution lines. The perfect filter for viewing nebula from light polluted skies, or for boosting the contrast of nebula from dark sky sites. In addition to it's optimum spectral and optical characteristics, the UHC/LPR filter offers important features that set it apart and result in the highest quality celestial views: The multi-layer dielectric coatings are plasma assisted and Ionbeam hardened using the latest technology for durability and resistance to scratching. Improved transmission translates to maximum image brightness and contrast. Users of smaller, 4"-11" telescopes will especially appreciate the high efficiency, and larger scope users will love the rich star fields and detailed subtle nebular shadings that are left intact. The high transmission, sharp cutoffs, and more moderate 60nm passband of the UHC/LPR filter retains a more natural view, yet significantly boosts overall contrast. Imagers will appreciate the broader bandpass and inclusion of an extremely efficient H-Alpha passband (656nm). Review: gives nebulae more contrast and more shape - This UHC filter does its job at making nebulae have more contrast and more shape. This filter works with emission and planetary nebulae. It makes nebulae have about 30% more contrast. It is especially effective on the orion nebula and even bette on the M27 Dumbell nebula. The below reviewers clearly do not know how lpr filters work. It will not eliminate light pollution, just lessen the effect of it. I use this on my Orion XT10i Dobsonian (10 inch aperture). The uhc filter is more well rounded than an OIII filter. It is actually $20 cheaper on desertcart than on Celestrons own website. Review: Great Filter for City Dwellers - This is a great filter. I've used on many light polluted nights on the outskirts of a large city. It also helps with some planetary details in general. The filter feels pretty solid and I'm happy with the quality of the glass. ## Features - Our 1-1/4" Light Pollution Reduction (LPR) Filters are designed to selectively reduce the transmission of certain wavelengths of light, specifically those produced by artificial light ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00080L42K | | Best Sellers Rank | #16 in Telescope Filters | | Brand | Celestron | | Coating Description | Multi Coating | | Color | Black | | Compatible Devices | Telescopes and cameras with standard 1.25-inch or 31.75mm thread size | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 130 Reviews | | Enclosure Material | Optical Glass | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00050234941235 | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 1.25"D x 1.25"W x 1.25"H | | Item Dimensions L x W | 1.25"L x 1.25"W | | Item Highlight | Light Pollution Reduction, Enhanced Nebula Contrast, Darker Sky Background, High Transmission Optical Coating, For Visual Use | | Item Weight | 0.03 kg | | Light Sensitivity | high | | Manufacturer | Celestron | | Manufacturer Part Number | 94123-CGL | | Material | Optical Glass | | Media Type | ProductImage | | Model Name | 94123 | | Model Number | 94123-CGL | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Pieces | 1 | | Photo Filter Effect Type | Enhancing | | Photo Filter Size | 31.75 millimeters | | Photo Filter Thread Size | 31.75 millimeters | | Screen Size | 1.25 inches | | Special Effect | Enhancing | | Thread Size | 31.75 millimeters | | UPC | 050234941235 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Warranty Description | 2 Year Limited Warranty | | Water Resistance Level | Not Water Resistant | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Celestron - **Coating Description:** Multi Coating - **Global Trade Identification Number:** 00050234941235 - **Material:** Optical Glass - **Photo Filter Effect Type:** Enhancing - **Photo Filter Size:** 31.75 Millimeters - **Photo Filter Thread Size:** 31.75 Millimeters - **Product Dimensions:** 1.25"L x 1.25"W - **UPC:** 050234941235 - **Water Resistance Level:** Not Water Resistant ## Images ![Celestron UHC/LPR Light Pollution Reduction Filter for Telescopes – 1.25" - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61B6lEgLU1L.jpg) ![Celestron UHC/LPR Light Pollution Reduction Filter for Telescopes – 1.25" - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51IE+hYbu8L.jpg) ![Celestron UHC/LPR Light Pollution Reduction Filter for Telescopes – 1.25" - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51tmgnkcc9L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ gives nebulae more contrast and more shape *by B***N on September 10, 2015* This UHC filter does its job at making nebulae have more contrast and more shape.

I've used on many light polluted nights on the outskirts of a large city. It also helps with some planetary details in general. The filter feels pretty solid and I'm happy with the quality of the glass. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ lower clouds shinning the lights of the city at background so I put this filter in a XCEL 25mm on a 130EQ Celestron Astromaster *by A***I on November 17, 2014* Incredible,,,, at naked eyes there where no stars, rainy and cloddy days all week, lower clouds shinning the lights of the city at background so I put this filter in a XCEL 25mm on a 130EQ Celestron Astromaster and it was fantastic!!!!!!! I had compared it with an 24mm eyepiece without the filter and really works!!!! The other side is that it is very reflective so you will notice something shinning inside the eyepiece so u need to be in the completely dark or put your hands around eyepiece. Nice, very nice. ## Frequently Bought Together - Celestron 94123 1.25-Inch UHC/LPR Filter (Black) - Celestron 14 Piece Telescope Accessory Kit - Plossl Eyepieces, Barlow Lens, Colored Filters, Moon Filter, and Sturdy Carry Case - Celestron 3X - 1.25” – X-Cel LX Barlow Lens --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ma/products/2685901-celestron-uhc-lpr-light-pollution-reduction-filter-for-telescopes-1](https://www.desertcart.ma/products/2685901-celestron-uhc-lpr-light-pollution-reduction-filter-for-telescopes-1) --- *Product available on Desertcart Morocco* *Store origin: MA* *Last updated: 2026-09-10*
