I am new to observing stars, the Sun and Moon and found that I required a Sun filter for my Vaonis. I found my item on the website and found the description very helpful and accurate and noting assistance was available. I made my purchase late at night and the next day I was informed it had been packed and despatched to me. Within two days I was in receipt of my filter and ready to use. I would buy again from the website without any hesitation.

Easy solar observing

The kit is easy to use and the guide on the side of the Hestia is very effective at aligning in the sun. I took a great image if sunspots within minutes of setting it up

Easy to use - great

Easy to use - great support

Parfait

Nouvelle utilisatrice d'hestia de vaonis (mon cadeau de noël) j'ai voulu tester très vite la prise de photo du soleil ! Ce filtre est bluffant ! Je ne sais pas encore bien me servir de tout mais j'y prends un plaisir fou ! Et j'ai déjà envie d'aller explorer plus loin... mais il faut économiser un peu ! Merci pour la technologie hyper intuitive et bravo à vous !

Tutorials | Master your Hestia

Solar observation must be carried out with Vaonis solar filters. Never look directly at the sun without the filter, as this could injure you or damage your phone.

Select solar mode from the camera menu.
Install the Vaonis solar filter by screwing it onto the front of Hestia.

The image will turn black, with only the sun remaining visible after the filter is installed.

Attach the Solar pointer to Hestia.
Aim at the sun with Hestia, using the tripod.
Use the solar pointer's shadow to help you aim at the sun.
Once the sun is centered on the screen, fix the tripod's altitude axis.

⚠ Never look directly at the sun with your naked eyes, as it can cause serious damage to your vision.
