Dew control on filters threated on the end of a Camera adapter.

[Marios (Marios)]

Hi Guys

I am considering purchasing the below filter to thread onto the end of my Bintel 2inch Camera adapter. I am concerned that the filter may suffer from dew as it is exposed to the night air in my Newtonian scope.

Since the filter will likely rest on a inward focus or close to it a dew heater wrap around wont be able to be applied directly around the filter itself.

Can anyone suggest a work around to keep Dew off?

Found two solutions to move the 2 inch filter up the frame closer to the DSLR to reduce the risk of DEW.
