It mounts at the rear of the imaging train and uses four adjustment points to correct sensor tilt so stars stay round across the field. It carries an M42×0.75 female thread and is a purely mechanical part with no glass and no electronics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWho It's For\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a good match if you are imaging with a Player One carbon-fiber cooled camera and need to remove tilt between the sensor and the optical axis to get even corner stars.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features \u0026amp; Design\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFour-point tilt adjustment:\u003c\/strong\u003e four adjustment points let you correct sensor tilt in the imaging train.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eM42 thread interface:\u003c\/strong\u003e M42×0.75 female thread on the plate.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRear-mounted plate:\u003c\/strong\u003e it fits at the rear of compatible cooled cameras, working with the R31 and R27 rings.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAluminum 6061-T6 body:\u003c\/strong\u003e light, corrosion-resistant, and dimensionally stable.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended Uses\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse it to dial out sensor tilt on a compatible cooled-camera imaging train, so field stars are even from center to corner when paired with a filter wheel or filter drawer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility \u0026amp; Accessory Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlayer One lists it as compatible with the Ares series, Uranus PRO series, and Apollo PRO series cameras, and with the Phoenix wheel (7×36 mm, 7×2″, 7×50, and 5×2″) and the Filter Drawer MAX.
