Irix Edge Super Endurance (SE) series
The Irix Edge Light Pollution is the first filter of the Super Endurance (SE) series. The optical glass has been subjected to a special thermal treatment to increase durability; in addition, both surfaces of the filter have been covered by coatings that further increase the overall strength of the entire filter surface.
The yellow dominant that can be seen in the picture during the night is caused by the use of sodium lamps for urban streetlighting. The Irix Edge Light Pollution filter removes the yellowish haze emitted by sodium lamps.
This type of filter can be successfully used in the city, in the urban landscape, or the photography of the night sky when we want to capture the stars, or the Milky Way, with natural colors.

On both surfaces of the filter applied a multilayer anti-reflective coatings to minimize the risk of unwanted reflections.
The filter has also NANO coating with hydro- and oil-repellent characteristics, so that dirt does not adhere to its surface so the maintenance of the filter's purity has been significantly facilitated.
