Solar Filter for VAONIS Vespera

Photograph the Sun with Vespera VAONIS

Solar Mode allows you to observe the Sun in near real time through live viewing*. Capture photos at any time from the Observation tab of the Singularity mobile app.

Take multiple photos at different times of the day, week or month and compare them. Witness how the Sun's activity changes with the appearance or disappearance of sunspots. These can have a lifetime of several days, more rarely several weeks.

Sunspot observation

Automatic video recording for solar/planetary observation is not yet offered in Singularity. To make an animation, retrieve your photos in jpg format from Vespera's internal memory and stitch them together using photo/gif animation software.

*Continuous photo display with a unit exposure time of 250µs

Watch safely

The filter is made of glass with a dimming effect. It will reduce the amount of light and allow you to observe the Sun safely for your instrument. The Vaonis Singularity app's Solar Mode will guide you through every step of your adventure to ensure that observing goes smoothly and that you and your instrument are safe.
