Player One Astronomy Filter Drawer MINI

Product Overview

The Player One Filter Drawer MINI brings fast, drop-in filter changes to compact imaging trains, accepting both 1.25-inch and 2-inch filters through a pair of included drawers. Swap filters in seconds without unthreading your camera or losing focus.

Who It's For

This drawer is for imagers running Player One's Ares-series, Uranus PRO, or Apollo PRO cameras who want quick, repeatable filter changes in a small footprint and use either 1.25″ or 2″ filters.

Key Features & Design

• Two drawers included: one 1.25″ drawer (M28.5 × 0.6 female thread) and one 2″ drawer (M48 × 0.75 female thread) cover both common filter sizes.
• Slim 21 mm extension: only 21 mm of added optical length keeps you within tight backfocus budgets.
• Secure mounting: six M2.5 screw holes on each side bolt the drawer firmly to the camera and telescope sides.
• Aluminum 6061-T6 build: aircraft-grade aluminum keeps the assembly stiff and lightweight.

Recommended Uses

Use the Filter Drawer MINI for deep-sky and planetary imaging on compact rigs where you switch between 1.25″ and 2″ filters and want the fixed, repeatable spacing of a drawer instead of threading filters onto the camera.

Compatibility & Accessory Notes

• Cameras: Player One lists compatibility with its Ares series, Uranus PRO, and Apollo PRO.
• Filters: the included drawers accept 1.25″ (M28.5 × 0.6) and 2″ (M48 × 0.75) filters.
