Eclipse Shades® Solar Filter – Our Black Polymer Solar Filters are a low cost alternative to our aluminum cell and glass filters. They have been designed with quality and cost in mind. They can be used on telescopes, binoculars, cameras and finder scopes. This is the same high quality material you have come to know in our Eclipse Shades® Safe Solar Eclipse Glasses. Unlike other solar filters, our black polymer solar film will provide a more pleasing and natural Yellow-Orange image of the sun. This color also offers more contrast and clarity than other solar films. The advantages of this material is that it is stronger and more durable than other thin film solar filters. The actual filtering properties are protected within the substrate. Patent Pending
Warranty:
The safety of this product is guaranteed by ensuring the coating has a transmission of 0.001% or less. The R-G solar film, 2+ Solar Glass Filter and Black Polymer is tested before shipment. If the film or filter has arrived damaged it will be replaced free of charge. Do not use any film that shows any form of defect. Please contact us for further return instructions. All solar filters are covered by a limited liability warranty from defects in material and workmanship.
How to size a Filter to fit your Telescope or Binoculars:
Your solar filter cell fits over the outside of the telescope or lens holder. This is the same when covering a pair of binoculars or a finder scope. Measure the outside diameter (O.D) of the device and choose the filter size with the inside dimension (I.D.) of the cell larger than the lens holder. Do not choose a filter the same size as your O.D. This will be too tight and not allow room for the felt lining which you will use to tightly fit the filter to your device. Felt tape is included for custom fitting with each filter.
Usually, orders ship out within 24-48 hours upon placement. You receive your order dependent on the shipping service you have requested and location from our warehouse.

The filter was exactly what I wanted. Easy on-line ordering .
I contacted Rainbow Symphony support because there wasn’t any easy indicator of what size to order for my binoculars. They suggested the 70mm. They only come in packs of 1 so I ordered 2. These fit perfect on my Orion UltraView 10x50 binoculars. Thanks so much!
For the 2017 total solar eclipse I made a filter for my Canon SX60 HS digital camera. As it was a total eclipse, I wanted to obtain a clear black and pure white image of the moment the configuration looks like a diamond ring. I did this by using Baader Solar Mylar sheet film for the filter material. On October 14, 2023 I will be in Albuquerque, NM to witness and capture the Annular Solar Eclipse, where there is always some sunlight still shining as the moon's position does not block out all the suns light. To make a more interesting photograph, I wanted to use a black mylar solar filter this time which would allow the sunlight to have a yellow/orange color rather than pure white on the image. This Solar filter from Rainbow Symphony is just perfect for providing me the colored image I wanted to achieve and a reasonable price. as well.
