Celestron moon filter in a Skywatcher EP

[CJ (Chris)]

Hi,
Does anyone know if a 1.25" Celestron moon filter will screw into in a 1.25" Skywatcher EP. I have no idea whether EP threads are a standard pitch or not. Is the Celestron moon filter ok? It would certainly make a cheap addition to my limited gear

Thanks

Chris - the threading is an industry standard, so yes; your 1.25" filter will fit any 1.25" EP (particularly as SW products come out of the same factory as Celestron).

An alternative to 1.25" is the 2" standard.

Thanks Dean,
I suspected that was the case but I thought I'd ask the question.
What I don't know about ep's would fill a book!
