DayStar Tilt Adapter
DayStar Tilt Adapter
This accessory is designed for use with the DayStar Quark and Sol Series dedicated solar telescopes, allowing you to mount a T thread camera directly to the Quark. The Daystar Tilt Adapter also includes a tilt function to remove Newton's Rings (also known as interference fringes). If you plan to image with your Quark, this is the most important accessory to purchase. This adapter tilts up to 5 degrees in order to handle the nastiest fringes. Do not waste your time on competitor's tilt adapters that were designed for nighttime use - those do not have nearly enough tilt range. The camera clocking angle can also be adjusted at 30 degree intervals by removing the thumbscrews and choosing a different hole pair. This allows you to orient the camera for the best cable management. Designed to work natively with 17.5mm flange focal distance cameras, it also includes a 5mm spacer ring for use with 12.5mm flange distance cameras.
