Baader UFC D 50.4 Filter Slider (#2459113, € 40,-)
Apart from the UFC Base, and the associated telescope- and camera-side adaptors for your telescope/camera combination, you will need
Baader UFC D 50.4 Filter Slider (#2459113, € 40,-)
. It is to this particular filter slider that any of the AUX step-down adaptors attach to.
We offer three AUX step-down filter holder adaptors for use with the D50.4mm slider:
- Baader UFC 1¼" AUX-Filter-Holder (requires #2459113) (#2459153, € 9,50) : This adaptor is (female) threaded to accept the standard 28.5mm filter cell threads.
- Baader UFC D 31 mm AUX-Filter-Holder (requires #2459113) (#2459151, € 9,50) : This adaptor comes with three Allen-key socket screws and washers to securely clamp a 31mm unmounted filter in the AUX filter adaptor holder.
- Baader UFC D 36 mm AUX-Filter-Holder (requires #2459113) (#2459152, € 9,50) : As with the above AUX filter holder, this adaptor comes with three Allen-key socket screws and washers to securely clamp a 36mm unmounted filter in the AUX filter adaptor holder.
The 31mm and 36mm unmounted AUX holder have a small narrow “shoulder” on the inside of the unit to support of the filter once the filter is in place (otherwise the filter would drop or fall straight through the holder!).
The AUX filter holder is simply inserted into the UFC filter slider's circular opening and then it is secured in place using the three Allen key hex-screws that come with the filter slider. As with the 31/36mm AUX filter holder, the D50.4mm slider also features a small “shoulder” in the “base” of the filter opening to support the AUX holder in place (as well as to support 50.4mm unmounted filters when the AUX holder is not used).
The 1.25″/31mm/36mm filters can be inserted, removed or exchanged with the AUX holder either in place or with it removed from the UFC filter slider – its personal preference.
