Description

MIDI Filter Wheel

The new MIDI filter wheel is the latest in a successful line of USB filter wheels designed to be powered and controlled through one USB cable. The built-in Off Axis Guider is perfect for use with the Lodestar X2 or Ultrastar guide camera . (Can be used with other brands of autoguider)

A key feature of the MIDI filter wheel is that when it used in conjunction with a Starlight Xpress imaging camera, the total back focus is 55mm, which is the perfect back focus for many refractors with focal reducers/flatteners. Other makes of cameras can also be fitted to the filter wheel via the male T-thread input adapter. On the telescope side, a female T-thread is fitted as standard with a M48 female adapter supplied in the package.

Emma H. ★★★★★

The Off Axis Guider built into this filter wheel makes guiding so much cleaner than my old separate setup. It's powered by a single USB cable, which simplifies my rig nicely.

Olivia ★★★★★

Set up the USB connection and it was instantly recognized by my capture software — no extra power adapter needed. The Off Axis Guider is aligned perfectly, making autoguiding setup much simpler than my old setup.

Benjamin ★★★★☆

USB control is so convenient—just one cable for power and data—and the wheel itself feels solid and precise. The built-in Off Axis Guider works well, though I wish the filter slots were a bit easier to access. Overall a great upgrade for my imaging setup.
