Check vignettingThis Extra Filter Drawer is designed for the Starizona Modular Filter Slider system, allowing you to pre-load your standard 2-inch mounted filters for immediate use. Each drawer holds a single filter with 48mm threads, making it simple to build a library of your most-used filters. Having multiple drawers ready to go eliminates the need to unthread filters in the dark, dramatically speeding up any imaging or visual astronomy session.
The primary advantage of extra drawers is efficiency. Instead of carefully unscrewing a filter from its cell, you can simply eject one drawer and insert the next. This workflow is transformative for multi-filter imaging sequences like LRGB or for switching between different narrowband targets. Each drawer securely holds a standard 2-inch (M48 thread) filter, protecting it from dust and handling when not in the optical path. Please note: be sure to choose the correct drawer version that matches your specific Starizona Filter Slider model to ensure proper fit and function.
This drawer holds standard 2-inch mounted filters that use 48mm (M48) threads. It is designed specifically for use with a compatible Starizona Filter Slider system.
For LRGB imaging, you can use four separate drawers to pre-load your Luminance, Red, Green, and Blue filters. This allows you to swap between channels in seconds by simply sliding one drawer out and the next one in, saving significant time compared to unthreading and re-threading filters for each exposure set.
It is critical to select the drawer that matches the specific version of the Starizona Filter Slider you own. Please verify your Filter Slider model before purchasing to ensure you receive a compatible drawer.
