How to Use Star Focus Filter(video)?
Method 1
-
Mount the Star Focus Filter onto your camera.
-
Turn on the live view mode, adjust the ISO to the biggest (ISO 1600 or above), and set the shutter speed to 10s or more.
-
Adjust the frame and make sure the bright star or light source is in the middle of the frame. It is recommended that you look for a bright star of magnitude 1 to focus on.
-
Magnify the frame and adjust the focusing rings at the same time until three fine spike lines show out in the frame.
-
Rotate the focusing ring to make the three spikes intersect at one point. This the when the precise focus is achieved.
Method 2
-
Mount the Star Focus Filter onto your camera.
-
Adjust the focus rings to get an infinity focus
-
Set the high ISO and short exposure (several seconds), and take one testing shot
-
Check the three spike lines in the frame, if the central spike is closing to the left, screw the focus ring to the right. If the central spike is closing to the right, screw the focus ring to the left.
-
Take a second testing shot, and repeat step 4 until three spikes intersect at one point. Then a precise focus is achieved.
Note: Hand holding the filter, then it can work with the lens without the adapter
Tips:
-
It will need to position the bright star in the middle of the frame, choosing the bright star of magnitude 1 or close to the magnitude 1
-
For the wide lenses, please turn the aperture to the biggest
-
The filter is not wear-resistant, please store it in a filter case after use. If there is dust or oil, please use an air blower and neutral detergent to remove them
-
Do not place it in high temperature environment

Customer Reviews
I bought the Star Focus Filter due to other reviews being favorable. I've used it once and I believe it helps. Move-Shoot-Move could use more instruction videos or information on this filter. Do you remove the filter after focusing? I guess so.
This may be a great product, but MSM needs to include further instructions for use. My filter came with zero instructions.
I would have wished, that the starfilter is at least 95mm in diameter for my NIKON 200…500mm lens. Other than that, it has fine grid and is nicely made
Easy Focus - Star Focus Filter - Precise focus on the stars is Easy with it
Simplifies focusing, especially suitable for commercially available photo lenses.
I have only been able to use a few time so far because of cloudy weather. Performs great as advertised, and the feature of all the different adapters was the selling point that really convinced me to buy because several of my lenses have different size filter requirements. Great product, thank you.
Great help getting star’s focused
.
Very easy
Easy to use and stars are focused from test shoots to final capture.
Overall it’s a good quality tool. Because of the small apertures you are working with, use a very bright star so you can see the spikes. Also, get some step up/down rings so you can thread it to your lens, otherwise you are holding it in one hand, focusing with the other.
