Review on 🌌 Astromania 1.25-Inch Filter Wheel with Five Filter Positions for Telescopes by James Jenkins

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Warning: Questions and answers for different products are mixed.

This is an overview of the Astromania 1.25 Astromania 1.25 Premium Quality Multi Filter Wheel ASIN B0140UAASM, item model number SKU_AM_FW1M9. use. Unlike reviews, questions and answers can relate to any of the products and there is no way of telling which product is being discussed unless they state it. Revain, please improve the labeling in the Q&A so we can see what product people are talking about. This model features a T2 jack (pitch 42mm x 0.75mm) both internally and externally. The "camera adaptor" is a male T2 to male T2 with a compression ring with a female T2 thread to allow the angle of the attached device to be adjusted. The included nose adapter is T2 male to 1.25" male. The Allen key that was in my package didn't match the clasps to open it. It was too small. It's well made and durable. The yarn quality is good. and there are no smears or binding when screwing in and out. This will add a lot of weight to your focuser so make sure your focuser is up to the task. As advertised I don't see any light leakage. It does it works commendably well It is good to feel when you are in the niche, even when wearing gloves.If you do not have special tools, or if you have small fingers and are exceptionally dexterous, it must be disassembled in order to safely install the filters .

Pros
  • This is a 1.25 inch diameter 5 position filter wheel for telescopes. The telescope's high-quality filter wheel allows for quick and easy replacement. A huge time saver for filtered observations of the planets and the moon with different color filters or for tricolor astrophotography. The included 1.25" 5-position filter wheel allows you to set all the filters and then select the 1.25" filter you want to use for a specific astrophotographic shoot. Filters can be changed very quickly at any time.
Cons
  • Something different
