Will be FW8-8300 filter wheel adapt to the STT8300 camera? I am having a hard time finding a FW8S-8300 filter wheel.
They are not mechanically compatible, at least not without making some kind of custom adapter. We can still build an STT wheel, it's just that we're out of the STT "standard covers" (we do still have guided covers). The Aluma cover will fit on the STT wheel, but there's an extra hole in it. If you don't mind covering that hole with something then that is an option - we could make you one.
Doug, That would be great...I have had an ad on Astromart for months and just can’t get a filter wheel for my camera. Dean Glace, ,,icehouse4@sc.rr.com
Here's the product description and pricing: http://diffractionlimited.com/product/fw8f-stt/ Here's the cover we would use instead of the standard cover: http://diffractionlimited.com/product/standard-cover-aluma-filter-wheel/ If you're sure you're okay with having the extra hole, which you will have to cover up somehow (duck tape lol), then we can build one. I'll have Anique contact you.
Doug, I think I have a standard cover for a STT8300 that came with my other STT8300 camera with a FW8S-8300 filter wheel. I am at a meeting right now and will respond later tonight if I have the cover.
