Manual Filter Wheel Changing filters doesn’t have to be a pain. 5 positions, with “clicks” on every position, to make the task a breeze. 19.5mm thick, so that it can be used on virtually any telescope. Made of machined Aluminium, black anodized. It has T threads on both sides, and includes a 1.25” adapter and T-male adapter, for use with any CCD camera.

Parallel to Serial Adapter This adapter allows the use of a serial port, instead of the Parallel port. Also, by using a USB to serial converter (available at a computer store), all cameras will work as USB only devices.

Infra Red blocking filter This filter is very useful, especially if imaging in color. Better color saturation and rendition is achieved, if the filter is used. It is mandatory to use it with a refracting telescope, and recommended for composite (SCT) telescopes. Not necessary if using a mirror only telescope (except if imaging in color).

Focal reducer This focal reducer allows shorter exposures, by reducing the focal ratio of the telescope to half. This is especially useful for SCT and MCT owners, since this types of telescopes normally have a focal ratio above f/10. By reducing it to half, exposure duration is 4 times lower, and the field of view is 2 times larger. Refractor owners will also find it useful. However, Newtonian owners will not be able to achieve focus with it.

Filter Support Kit This filter support kit allows you to change filters in a fast and easy way. If you use LRGB filters, this is the product you’ve been waiting for. Even for planetary imagers, who use IR pass, UV or Methane filters, will find this kit extremely useful. The telescope support is T threaded on both sides (Male-Female), and includes a 1.25” adapter.

Filter Adapter Also available are extra filter supports, to avoid having to change the filters on the support. This way, you can have all your filters with it’s own support.

Short 1.25" Adapter This adapter allows to achieve a 0.7x reducing factor, with the 0.5x Atik focal reducer, further enhancing the system's flexibility. It's also very useful for telescopes with limited focus range.
