The Daystar COMBO QUARK Chromosphere model is a specialized Hydrogen Alpha filter designed for advanced solar observers and imagers who require full control over their optical setup. Unlike the standard Quark, the COMBO version is engineered for use with external telecentric or barlow systems, making it ideal for higher-end refractors, large-aperture instruments, and custom imaging configurations.
Tuned specifically for chromospheric detail, this model enhances fine surface structures such as filaments, fibrils, active regions, plage, and sunspot surroundings. Internal thermal regulation maintains a precise bandpass, ensuring stable, high-contrast results during long observing or imaging sessions.
The COMBO Quark integrates Daystar’s high-quality etalon and blocking filter into a single compact unit that fits into the focuser like a traditional eyepiece. It operates on a simple 5V USB power supply, making it easy to use while offering professional-grade performance for detailed solar study.
