Na... I'm gonna wait for the pro edition. I heard rumors that it will also include Starlink satellite trail suppression.
You actually had me going until the clouds. This was very well done! Hats off you.

KZread showed this to me on April 2nd at 6am. Since it was past the window where these kind of things are okay I now expect OPT to get to it and make this filter.

Hahaha good one, you even had Trevor and Chuck in on it...
Damn! I called OPT and asked about this icarus filter!
I was looking for my credit car until i realized it was April 1st
You had me until the clouds...I was gladly gonna sell a kidney for this thing until I saw the date...APRIL 1ST.
“Collect dark in the light” 🤣
Wondering what type of people are the 24 dislikes, non astrophotographers? lol

You got me....I almost shared this too.
After watching your video, I clicked Buy Yours Now and had my loudest laugh in months! Thanks you guys!
This filter is amazing. It has completely changed the way I work. Thanks OPT. There's only one thing missing though. I'm often find myself jealous of not being able to shoot the Andromeda galaxy or Veil Nebula from my location in the southern hemishphere. I'm sure many nothern hemisphere astrophotograhers are envious of some of our southern targets. So why not a filter that allows you to shoot through the graound?

Well done OPT! I'm bran new, along with my daughter, to Astrophotography let alone photograpy in general and you got me. I was LMAO at myself. I took this video home and showed it to my daughter also. She fell for it hook, line, and sinker!
I’m not going to say what word went through my head when I realized it was a prank.
Pre-ordering RIGHT NOW! 😂 What a wonderful production. Thank you OPT for making my day.
I can't get the drool off my phone fast enough to order. I don't need anger management after all.
PRE-ORDERED!!!
WHY TF DOES KZread RECOMMEND ME THIS ON SEP 16TH? I genuinely went nuts for the first minute... almost sent this to my astro mates.
Word on the street is the next gen filter doesn’t even require pointing your telescope at the sky. Looking forward to it!
I actually fell for this entire advert, start to finish!! FUMING!! I was like "Oh my frickin goodness!! This is a miracle!! I can't believe it!! I'm buying one no matter the cost!! OMGGGGG!!!" Then I read the comments below and realise it was a April fools joke!! GUTTEDDDDD!!!! 😭😭😭😂😂
Wow I was like what ! Until the cloud part hahaha got me there for a minute 😂
When you realise that it premiers on April 1st: *they had us in the first half not gonna lie*

Imaging on a cloudy or sunny day would sure fit my Astro skills well and even more important it will not mess up my sleep cycle!
I love how much effort has been put into the production of this video! If there was a filter to remove cloud I would sell my house to buy it 😂

I gotta admit, If they hadn't added the cloud filter part to the video, I would have walked away believing this.
Damn it, it took me a whole minute to figure this was uploaded on April 1st :)
Amazing! The next best thing since the dynamic cloud filter.
The link is amazing! I just ordered mine!!!

The snow filter is still in development.
The ProX version will have ceiling suppression so you can photograph the Cosmos from indoors in the confort of your living room couch
LOL.. I didn't see this until the 23rd.. wasn't even thinking about April Fools. I swear I heard angels singing! Great video!!! If you can build it... they will come!
well this is good news, but how most of us are going to locate anything during day time without a goto tripod?
Without a doubt the most powerful filter I’ve ever owned. Will see right through a brick wall and my girlfriends underwear at high noon in Death Valley it’s that damn good.
Love it. You had me for a bit and damn I was excited. 😃
04:29 the moment you realize its a prank. happy April fool day..
Had me fooled for 5 seconds LOL
For as much as they charge for the Triad Quad-Band filter, I would have thought IT would shoot during the daytime through clouds... Anyway, you had me going for a minute. Bravo!
There was a guy that used very narrow filters to shoot during daytime. I once saw a report about him a while ago it is actually possible. His filters where suuuuppper expensive. The image quality is ofc not as good as in nighttime but it's still pretty dope
😂😂😂 you nearly had me until the clouds, then I had to check the upload date. 😂😂 Nice one
You Bastards you got me. I get you back. Lol well done!
I can't believe that nine months after April Fools, this is still on KZread! But, God, it WAS funny and classic.
I admit you got me for a few seconds, haha, brilliant.
I was absolutely STUNNED, untill I saw the upload date........ 4 months later 🤔😂
Well thanks a lot OPT! I just got into a huge, marriage ending fight with my wife because I told her “I don’t care how much this filter costs, I’m buying it!” She just packed her bags and left!
You all are hilarious! Great collaboration in pulling of this prank!
Best April fools joke since 1985 Sports Illustrated Sidd Finch story.
Really nice video. Well done guys. Trevor too. Haha. :)
I just lied down in my bed and watched this on the night of April 2nd (I live in Tokyo)...it didn:t click for me and I was sitting here with eyes as wide as saucers. My partner walked in the room and said "what??" and I just pointed to the screen....and then they said clouds too. I was like, wait, when was this released?? oh FFS! lmao, well played OPT, well played. While we're at it, can I get a building filter too?
But can it see through the earth to?! The possibilities 😂😂🍀
Great cast! All of them. Bravo!!
Bravo!!!
Placing my pre-order now ;)
April 1st strikes again ;-)
Very funny, you got me! Now I'd like a filter to filter out the earth so I can see the Magellanic Clouds from North America.
Tell me this is a meme. It has all the hallmarks of an SNL skit.
on 2nd April , I became fooled..just think about it..I was so excited to see that..and Trevor..Of all of them u..
Omg 😱... game changer! Absolutely next level... ... Damn you got me!
Would love to see LMC from the northern hemisphere, hope you create a filter that takes care of the Earth blocking out all that sky.
The best April’s fool ever, from a bunch of madly brillant people… April 1st, 2021 will remain a milestone!
One of the best/wackiest April Fools’ leg-pull I can ever recall! Well done, guys! But what did it cost??
this got me so good im livid
Had me to the end. Tried to find it on the website.
Best video of the day... ;-) They almost got me. Hats off.
Next, they could build a Star Link filter.
I have to admit, you totally got me with this one...
If it's real then it's an amazing product.... Unbelievable ❤️❤️❤️

You're joking, right?
Waiting for the LL city pro version that sees through my neighbor's walls and trees.
Did anyone seriously fall for this - even when it got so far as shoots through clouds? I imagine hopeful folk were most aggrieved when they realised the date!!!
Cheating with the weather gods....you shall not pass!
Mack .... I'm excited 😀😀😀
How can I ever trust Astro Backyard again!
OMG! That video was so well done! My favourite You Tubers too! Wish it were true. Would be nice to actually sleep at night! Dr B from Manitoba
GOD DAMN I HOPED SO MUCH, but yeah expectable. Love it!
I'm waiting for the filter that lets me shoot through the earth. The earth filter is currently being researched.
Can we actually do the milky way??
that's FANTASTIC!!!! I just received mine, I can't wait for the sun to rise in order to test it
love this! xD
What's next? A wind filter?
Bahahaha nice you had me going there for a min...
Then I looked at the date! unless?
F#$&!!! You got me. I even posted over on Trevor's web page that he just posted about light pollution. I mean, it's the third of April now, and I wasn't thinking about April Fools. I should have known better when you said it went through clouds, too. Yeah, you got me. Dang!
Oh boy oh boy!
I have chills!
If you rub K-Y Jelly on the filter, it becomes a 5X Barlow lens.
Well played!
Oh yall think this is an april fools joke? I just got back in my DeLorean from 2085 so I could piss on my own tombstone and I can tell you this technology is very real.
I kid you not- I was on a local Astronomy club meeting yesterday and a lady actually, and seemingly seriously, was asking about this. Haiyaa!!
Somebody already did this prank already.....Filter 6000!!!!
You guys are crazy!!!
Next gen.: remove the rain.
Awesome and nice man bun.....
Up until the "sun light filtering" part, they got me thinking MAYBE this is for real... but when they said they were also able to erase the clouds, I just remember it was April 1st... :) :) :)
