Player One M48-Compatible Camera Tilter Plate

Product Overview

The Player One M48-Compatible Camera Tilter Plate is a machined aluminium tilt-adjustment plate that lets a Player One camera be squared to the sensor when used behind other brands' filter wheels. It carries M48 × 0.75 female threads and adds 5 mm of length. Player One lists it as compatible with select QHY and ZWO filter wheels and with its own Artemis and Poseidon series cameras.

Who It's For

This is a good match if you run a Player One Artemis or Poseidon camera behind a QHY or ZWO filter wheel and want a tilt plate to correct sensor tilt for even star shapes across the frame.

Key Features & Design

• Tilt adjustment: squares the camera sensor to the optical axis to correct tilt.
• M48 × 0.75 female threads: M48 interface into the imaging train.
• 5 mm added length: contributes 5 mm to the train.
• Aluminium 6061-T6: machined aluminium body.

Recommended Uses

• Sensor tilt correction: even out star shapes across the field when tilt is present.
• Third-party filter-wheel pairing: mate a Player One camera to a supported QHY or ZWO wheel.

Compatibility & Accessory Notes

Player One publishes compatibility with the QHYCFW3 series (except the QHYCFW3-XL), the ZWO NEW EFW 7x36, EFW 5X2, and EFW 7X2 filter wheels, and with Player One Artemis and Poseidon series cameras. It uses an M48 × 0.75 female thread and adds 5 mm of length. If you are not sure it matches your exact camera and wheel combination, send us your setup and we will confirm the fit.

Good to Know Before You Order

• Mechanical part: it provides tilt adjustment and spacing — there are no optics and no electronic communication through it.
• Adds 5 mm: account for the 5 mm of length when planning backfocus.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it difficult to set up?

It threads into the M48 train like any spacer; the tilt screws are then adjusted to square the sensor. Setting tilt takes some care, but it is a standard adjustment and only needs doing once for a given train.

Which filter wheels does it fit?

The QHYCFW3 series (except QHYCFW3-XL) and the ZWO NEW EFW 7x36, EFW 5X2, and EFW 7X2.

Which cameras does it work with?

Player One Artemis and Poseidon series cameras.

Bottom Line

In short: a machined aluminium M48 tilt plate that adds 5 mm and squares a Player One Artemis or Poseidon camera behind supported QHY and ZWO filter wheels.
