Light Pollution Filters
1

My 16-year-old son does astrophotography with a Canon T3i and a Rokinon 135mm lens attached to a motorized equatorial mount. He's looking to improve his city images with a light pollution filter.

The Rokinon lens has a 77mm filter width, but my son would prefer a light pollution filter that goes between the lens and the sensor, so that he can use the filter with his telescope as well.

Does anybody have a recommendation for such a filter for the EOS APS-C sensor size?

You should probably ask this question on the Astrophotography forum.
