The Daystar Filters Tilt Reducer 0.6x for Quark / T is designed for solar imaging with Daystar Quark systems. A focal reduction factor of 0.6x increases the available field of view, allowing cameras with smaller image sensors to capture a larger portion of the solar disk. The reducer also brightens the image, enabling shorter exposure times and helping to capture sharper frames under varying seeing conditions.

Key features

• 0.6x focal reduction increasing the field of view
• designed for solar imaging with Daystar Quark systems
• allows smaller camera sensors to capture a larger portion of the Sun
• increases image brightness and enables shorter exposure times
• shorter exposures help freeze atmospheric seeing and improve frame selection during processing
• exposure times approximately one third compared to imaging without the reducer
• built-in tilt adjustment to reduce interference fringes
• designed for cameras with T mount and 17.5 mm backfocus
• can also work with cameras with 12.5 mm backfocus when using the included 5 mm spacer
