SVBONYSV226 Telescope Filter Drawer, Photographic Filters Drawer with M42-M48 Adapter, Double Magnetic Filter Holder for 1.25 and 2 Inches Filter Mounted, for Deep Sky Photography

I have 3 different makes of filter drawers. One ZWO which if not careful you can order the wrong drawers. Player One which was OK but after a short while the filters drawers would fall out. So in the trash it went.Now I have the SVbony and it is by far the best of the 3 makes. It has tiny magnets that work to hold the draw in place. It is very well made and the drawers go in and out easy. It comes with two extra dawers and a 1 1/4 each adapter for smaller filters too. The price is at least half or better than half what the other two makes cost also. If your looking for a filter drawer that is made well works well and is half the price than any other make. The SVBony is your choice.

Works as advertised. Simple installation, gave 55mm distance required for my flattener when combined with my OAG system. Nice packaging, very solid, compatible with my existing 2 and 1.25 inch filters.

Filter wheels? Those are so 2010. Whoever thought up the idea of a filter drawer needs to be promoted, immediately. In all seriousness, this item obviously functions a bit differently than a wheel. If you're a serious imager who is using an indoor setup, then obviously an electronic filter wheel is the better choice. But for the rest of us, a filter drawer like this one is simpler to use.Screwing onto the front of your camera, the drawer allows you to easily swap out any filters you own without having to change out anything on your imaging train. It accommodates both 2" and 1.25" sizes.It is virtually identical to the ZWO filter drawer in both size (21mm) as well as the standard threading on both sides (M42 & M48). You may need a M48 to 1.25" adapter.This thing is heavy duty and looks great, like a piece of cast iron... and that's the problem. The SVBONY filter drawer weighs 8oz more than the ZWO filter drawer, a full half-pound. If you already have, say, an ADC or a Barlow or other equipment attached to your scope, this adds a not-insignificant amount of weight.But here there is also a nice trade-off in your favor: the price. The SVBONY filter drawer comes in $30 cheaper than the ZWO filter drawer, so for astrophotographers on a budget this is the way to go if your mount can handle it. Virtually all items related to astronomy and astrophotography depend on your particular setup, budget, and goals. If this product is right for you I can enthusiastically recommend it for the quality, functionality, and the price.

Much better quality than the ZWO filter I ordered and returned. Half the price of competitors and you get two filter holders and the magnet is strong af.

I originally wrote a review that wasn't so glowing. My concerns were that the 2" filters are harder to screw in without touching the surface compared to the competitive ZWO product, and that I had a couple of the magnets fall out. While that may be true, the other benefits of this SVBONY drawer outweigh any drawbacks. SVBONY promptly replaced the item that lost the magnets. Their customer service has been nothing short of outstanding. Also, I have found that the magnets in the ZWO product are quite weak compared to the SVBONY product, and I'm concerned that filters will fall out, so I will be using this instead. That can't happen with the SVBONY drawer. The magnets are extremely strong (maybe why they can fall out... actually they don't "fall out" but are pulled out by the attracting magnet on the other piece. If there is any one thing that can be improved with this product, it is to better secure the magnets. Even if one of the magnets falls out, the other side is likely to be secure enough, perhaps more secure than the competitor product. I now have five of these filter drawers and they are every bit worth the money.

No light leaks, magnet holds filter in well, durable material and construction, and can hold 1.25 or 2 inch filters.

While I've never used their telescopes, I have many Svbony accessories and they are all well built. I don't know if this was an extra that some how made it into the box, but mine came with 2 drawers. I didn't know that so I ordered an extra. Works out so now I've got extras. Perfect fit and only the slightest of light leak. I don't notice it in any lights or calibration frames other than the dark flats. And even then it's mild and that was in direct sunlight. (I know). This is cheaper than a used ZWO and this has a better fit latch than their first series. Not sure about the updated version of the Z but these parts are clean. Threads were perfect. Not a single flaw. Even shipped in a cut foam cube in a plastic box for storage. I am really impressed with everything I've used that was Svbony.

This filter drawer is really solidly built and the including of a second drawer, at this price point, makes it a no-brainer. I'm docking one star (would only be a half star if I could) because one of the magnets came out of the drawer when I removed it from its housing while changing filters. I didn't discover this until I attempted to slide the second drawer into place and it wouldn't snap shut (because there was a magnet in the way). Removed the magnet easily with a pair of long nose pliers and moved on with my shooting session. I haven't contacted SvBony about the issue yet, I may just see if I can superglue it into place and have done with it.
