Interesting accessory. Looks like it is targeting a relatively narrow niche of visual observers who are also avid filter users. As such IMO it has to come with a well thought way to store the filters during the session and in between. Otherwise I don't see any advantage over 5 position manual filter wheel - diagonal combo I am using now.

Very slick looking diagonal. The reviewer must have had me in mind when he mentions collimation as an opportunity to misalign one's optical train.
