Practical advices from Teleskop-Service:

Especially with adaptions for astrophotography, it depends on a fraction of a millimetre. With our M48 tuning rings and extension tubes, you can adapt the filter changer exactly to your "image train".

We recommend one drawer for each filter. Interchanging of filters during by screwing while photographing or observing is rather unfunctional.
