Unlike you I don't have the restriction of having a set of expensive filters already, so the Atik One 9.0 looks good, since it takes the smaller 1.25" filters, hence that will save me a bit of cash relative to buying 36mm ones. I want 3nm. Just wish it wasn't only a 5 filter wheel. Hmm  |
If you look into getting a camera with Sony sensor, then I really like QSI WSG-8, as you have all components in one part and then you can bolt a dedicated QSI extension to the camera giving you about 56mm (extra 1mm to account for a filter in the optical path) optimal back focus for most reducers/flatteners. No flex, no misalignment, no worries
