    Hi

    I have a CFW-8A filter wheel with filters already installed that was purchased from OPTcorp. The 1.25" mounted filters do not have any markings on them as to what brand they are. DO you know who they were made by?

    That would be a little hard to tell.
    Probably Baader or Astrodon.
    Astrodon's tend to be very reflective on one side.

    Other than that OPT should know.
    Regards
    Tim

    They don't look like Baader, they have quite a distinctive fluted edge.

    The CFW8A is pretty old. Probably predates some of these suppliers. Maybe Custom Scientific?
