LUNT ERF- Filter (Orientation)

Post by chriskosmos »

Hi Guys,
My Lunt LS60 mod goes ahead
I have built a holder for the Lunt ERF 100 filter. Now I have the question
Which side must face the sun?

Side1: has a small golden / yellow Ring on the side
side 2: nothing

Yes, that's the right way, the anti reflective layer goes on the 'outside'

To better understand this post, the side with the Gold Band around the edge is the Anti-Reflective side?
