Attaching a filter to my imaging train?

#1

Post by Larry 1969 »


Good day all!
I've recently been convinced that I should have an IR/UV cut Luminance filter in my train.
I have an Explore Scientific HR coma corrector and I see that the end that inserts into the focuser is threaded.
I can't find in the manual what the thread pitch is so I'm wondering if a mounted 2" filter like this will screw right in?

Thanks!
