              The kits include only the camera and the specified filter. No additional filter drawer, filter wheel, or optical splitter is included. A 2-inch filter holder compatible with the mount is required.<\/p>\n

              The coverage of the full-frame sensor depends on the mount, the distance to the filter, and the focal ratio; the absence of vignetting is not guaranteed. Check the filter's compatibility with your instrument's focal ratio.<\/p>\n
