* HYPERSTAR USERS:

If you're ordering a Modular Filter Slider for your HyperStar you will also need to purchase a

Filter Slider Adapter

for your camera of choice to reach the correct backfocus and attach the Modular Filter Slider to your HyperStar.

The Modular Filter Slider improves on our original Filter Slider design by allowing customization through interlocking modular top and bottom plates, making it more adaptable to various optical systems, and by adding better protection against light leaks.

Zoe K. ★★★★★

The backfocus alignment is spot-on with my HyperStar setup, making filter changes quick and precise. I was worried about light leaks, but the sliding mechanism fits snugly and holds filters securely during long exposures.

Leo C. ★★★★★

Swapping filters used to take forever, but the modular design here clicks together and slides in smoothly without any light leaks. The adapter setup for my camera was straightforward and the whole rig feels solid.

Christopher C. ★★★★★

Swapping filters used to be a tedious process, but this slider lets me switch between narrowband and luminance in seconds without disturbing my HyperStar's alignment. The build quality feels solid, and the modular design gives me flexibility for future upgrades.
