Nikon APS-C Clip-In for 1.25" Unmounted Filters
Description
**Nikon APS-C Clip-In Adapter for 1.25" Astro Filters** The only company so far providing clip-in filters for Nikon APS-C cameras is STC. These filters tend to vignet, they're expensive, and require bending the metal to install them. For these reasons, I designed a clip-in adaper for 1.25" filters to use with my D5300 after having modded the camera. Should work for other Nikon APS-C cameras too. Warning: check first without filter, see if the shutter has full freedom of movement with the clip-in installed. It should be OK. While blocking the shutter doesn't immediately break it, it might cause damage and it will cause nasty horizontal vignetting in your pictures. Works with Nikkor lenses, tested with my f/2.8 lens. Fast lenses like this might vignet. During daytime pictures it was not obvious, but I did not check flats so there might be some vignetting in the corners. **What filters work?** Any 1.25" filter, but if it is mounted you need to remove it from its ring. **Print settings** Supports, 80% roof Print it upright, with the two legs towards the bottom. Ensures even filter placement and correct dimensions. Original FreeCAD file included. The design is a bit messy, iterated on it a lot.
