Baader Tilter-System

for the perfect camera alignment

It happens again and again that a camera sensor is not exactly perpendicular to the optical axis or that the neatly adjusted optics are installed in the tube in a slightly tilted position. In such cases, a "tilter" (a mechanical image position corrector) helps to perfectly adjust the camera sensor to the optics.

The new generation of Baader tilters (UFC-Tilter, M-68-Tilter and the new Baader FCCT for RASA 8 and QHY cameras) with adjustment screws on the sides enables lightning-fast adjustment with the camera attached. They hold even the heaviest accessories securely.
