Luminance/Infrared cut-off filters are usually being used with web cameras, color CMOS and CCD cameras to produce better quality images, as these are quite sensitive to infrared (heat) radiation of light.
The ZWO Duo-Band Filter is a dual narrowband filter primarily aimed at complementing our range of colour ASI cameras and offers an economical entry into the world of narrowband imaging and can also offer a practical solution to imaging in light polluted urban areas.
CH4 (methan) filters are recommended for CCD or CMOS cameras that have good sensitivity in the IR part of the spectrum at around 890nm . i.e. our ZWO ASI185 and ASI224 would be a good match for this filter.
Narrowband filters are used to create high contrast deep sky images of certain objects, mainly emission and diffuse nebulae (i.e. Veil Nebula, M42 Orion Nebula, North America Nebula, Horsehead Nebula) or planetary nebulae
The ZWO OIII 7nm narrowband filter is designed for nebula observation allowing 7nm bandwidth of light centered on a wavelength of 500nm, which corresponds to OIII emission lines, blocking out all other light.
The ZWO SII 7nm narrowband filter passes light at 672nm wavelength with a bandpass of 7nm which is designed for nebula observation and imaging. It is suitable for visual observation on most emission nebulae
Narrowband filters are used to create high contrast deep sky images of certain objects, mainly emission and diffuse nebulae (i.e. Veil Nebula, M42 Orion Nebula, North America Nebula, Horsehead Nebula) or planetary nebulae (i.e. M27 Dumbbell nebula, M57 Ring Nebula, Helix Nebula), just to mention few of well known nebulosities.

The ZWO SII 7nm narrowband filter passes light at 672nm wavelength with a bandpass of 7nm which is designed for nebula observation and imaging. It is suitable for visual observation on most emission nebulae, planetary nebulae and supernova remnants
The ZWO Duo-Band Filter is a dual narrowband filter primarily aimed at complementing our range of colour ASI cameras and offers an economical entry into the world of narrowband imaging and can also offer a practical solution to imaging in light polluted urban areas.
The ZWO LRGB 31mm filters have been specifically developed for ZWO deep sky imaging cameras like the ASI1600 and feature a small spectral gap to fight light pollution.
