ZWO EFW 5x2

The ZWO 5 x 2" filter wheel enables you to easily install five 2" or 50.4 ± 0.5 mm filters. It boasts compatibility with the ASCOM controller software for seamless control. You can connect the filter wheel to your computer or camera's USB ports using a USB 2.0 cable. The sleek black casing is constructed with CNC technology using a premium aluminum alloy commonly found in aviation. At its core, the filter wheel is equipped with a high-quality stepper motor from the renowned Japanese company, NPM.

One standout feature of this product is the minimal distance between the filter and the camera matrix, allowing you to avoid vignetting even when using high-intensity telescopes.

Before purchasing a filter wheel, it's important to check the required back focus of your camera for compatibility. The manufacturer's website offers examples of how to connect the filter wheel: astronomy-imaging-camera.com/tutorials/best-back-focus-length-solutions-55mm.html.
