Often referred to as a “sharp-cut” filter, Longpass Filters are specifically designed to pass a broad spectrum of longer wavelength light while blocking shorter wavelengths.
◆ A LP470 filter passes most visible and near-IR wavelengths of light. Used with monochrome cameras to aid in increasing contrast and resolution by blocking UV and shorter deep blue wavelengths.
◆ To achieve a similar effect while also blocking longer wavelengths including the near infrared, see our BP505 filter transmitting longer wavelengths often leads to decreased contrast in many LED-illuminated imaging applications.
◆ Recommend for use with laser diodes and LED lighting that operate in 810-830nm range LP780 filter material is commonly used for Near-IR wavelengths found in machine vision applications. An alternate-use bandpass filter would be our BP810 filter.
◆ LP830 is suggested for use with infrared LED lighting emitting at 880nm or 850nm when it is also desirable to transmit other longer infrared wavelengths as well.
◆ Otherwise we recommend our BP880 or BP850 filters not only for their longer wavelength blocking, but their overall higher peak transmissions.
