The Bahtinov Focusing Mask, Lens Cap, Dew Shield, Diffraction Spikes Mask with 4 and 6 rays are high-quality accessories for astronomers and astrophotographers. They are made of durable and lightweight PLA matte material that provides reduced reflective properties. These accessories are designed for the ZWO SeeStar S50 Smart Telescope. They are excellent tools for astrophotography: reducing stray light reflections, providing protection against dust, keeping your lens clean while the telescope is not in use, and adding features such as the ability to focus precisely or add 4 or 6 diffraction spikes to your images with bright stars.
ZWO SeeStar S50 has a built-in dual-band anti-light pollution filter. If you are not going to use your own extra narrow band 2-inch or 1.25-inch filters, this accessory set will be your best choice.
Sale includes:
All items fit each other and the SeeStar as well. The Dew Shield is designed to fit snugly; the Lens Cap is designed to be easily put on and taken off without falling off. Accessories like the Bahtinov Mask and Diffraction Spikes masks are designed to fit the S50 and other accessories without tension.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Please make sure you do not use the 'Shut Down' feature on your SeeStar S50 while using the accessories (excluding the lens cap). Also, ensure that the 'Auto Shutdown' feature (My SeeStar/Advanced Feature/Auto Shut Down) on your SeeStar S50 is turned off while using the accessories to prevent accidental jamming. Also, make sure your SeeStar has enough battery, as it may trigger the auto shutdown feature when the battery is lower than 5% (with the current firmware).
Please note: All parts are 3D printed. Sale includes accessories only; filters and the SeeStar shown in the pictures are not included.
Not recommended for solar imaging as black matte PLA material may get hot and melt/bend.
