Review Summary

Rated 4 out of 5

Documentation a little lacking

I am very pleased with the performance of the unit itself. So far it has performed flawlessly. Having said that the documentation regarding system requirements and software was lacking. I intended to use the included stand alone executable to operate the filter wheel, but found it does not work with Win 7. Fortunately, a compatible program is available at the Starlight Express web site for download, and it works well. I was a little disappointed nothing was included in the package that instructs the user where to go to get compatible software. Most users I know have long since upgraded from Windows XP since Microsoft has ceased to support it. If Starlight Express cannot update the included CD, there should at least be a slip of paper included in the package telling users of Win 7, 8 and 10 where to get a compatible program. If not for that I would have given it a five star rating.

About Starlight Xpress SXUFW-1

What sets the Starlight Xpress SXUFW-1 USB Filter Wheel apart is its unique design and innovative features. This professional-grade filter wheel, complete with T-Thread Female/T-Thread Male connections, is designed to operate without the need for a separate power supply when used with USB control. The high-performance DC gear motor runs entirely on the USB supply, consuming less than 100mA, making it an energy-efficient choice for photographers.

In addition to USB control, this versatile filter wheel is capable of operation from a serial input or from a switched hand controller, both of which power the wheel from a small dry battery. This flexibility allows for seamless integration into various photography setups.

The SXUFW-1 USB Filter Wheel is not just functional, but also user-friendly. Its lightweight and slim design, coupled with an easy change system of thumbscrews, allows for effortless swapping of filter disks without the need for additional tools. The adapters can be easily swapped by using a small screwdriver to release three stainless screws and lifting off the adapter flange.

Each adapter flange can be rotated to any angle before being locked down, enabling you to orient the wheel and camera into the optimum position. This feature enhances the ease of use and adaptability of the filter wheel, making it a valuable addition to any photography equipment collection.

The wheel operates quietly, ensuring no distractions during your photography sessions. The Hall-Effect 3 bit encoded positioning provides absolute filter locations, not just serially sequential. This means you can easily swap between any filters without accidentally losing the wheel position, adding to the convenience and efficiency of your photography process.

In conclusion, the Starlight Xpress SXUFW-1 USB Filter Wheel is a durable, high-quality, and innovative tool that is designed to enhance your photography experience. Its professional-grade features and user-friendly design make it a top choice for both amateur and professional photographers.
