Thank you for your reply. What is the maximum thickness of filter I can put in the carousel? I have 3 photometric filters that are 3 mm thick and the star analyser 200 that is 7.7 mm thick. Gianluca

I am thinking of buying an Atik motorized filter wheel. I wonder what real world impressions owner of these wheels may have. I am thinking of the model with carousel for 5x50 mm unmounted filters with an additional carousel for 7x36 mm filters unmounted. I am particularly interested in learning how the wheel performs in terms of precise filter centering, easy of switching of the carousels and potential issue with driver, firmware and Windows 10. Thank you for your help Gianluca

Does anyone know how to use the centering/tilt adjustment ring? I think it is impractical to align the sensor during an observing session especially if rotating the camera results in chip misalignment. Do you also now the dimensions of the sensor in mm excluding optical black and overscan area?

Thank you. The dovetail adaptor has a length of 6 mm?

I am also interested in this camera, the mono version. I would like to use it with my SX filter wheel but I figure out that the camera has no thread so I am prepared to have a sort of low profile adapter built by a friend of mine that works as lathe operator. However to match this camera to my rig I would need the short back focus version (advertised to be 6.7 mm only). QHY says that the real back focus of this version is actually 12.7 mm with their adapter that perhaps could be threaded to my SX wheel. QHY also states that there is bigger risk to get condensation over the glass regardless of the anti-dew heating system. I am concerned about that. Opinions? Thank you
