Tilter or tilt adjuster is a precision device used in astrophotography to correct tilt issues in an image train. Tilt occurs when the camera sensor is not perfectly parallel to the focal plane of the telescope or lens, leading to stars appearing sharp in one part of the image and distorted in another.
For astrophotographers using SkyEye series cameras, the M54-Tilter helps make adjustment easier for a SkyEye setup.

The M54-Tilter is specifically designed for the SkyEye62AM, SkyEye62AC, and SkyEye24AC deep-sky cooled full-frame cameras. This accessory combines robust build quality with thoughtful design features for precise and stable imaging setups.
