Know before you buy
No, this ring is specifically engineered for ZWO ASI cooled cameras with an 86 mm outside diameter. You should verify the diameter of your specific camera model before purchasing to ensure a proper fit.
This holder ring provides a more secure, circular grip around the camera body, which minimizes flexure and vibration during long-exposure imaging. Its aluminum construction offers a rigid, stable connection that standard universal brackets often lack.
The ring features standard mounting points that allow it to be attached to various telescope rings, dovetail bars, or tripod heads. Depending on your specific tripod setup, you may need an additional adapter plate to bridge the connection.
While the ring is crafted from durable aluminum for maximum stability, it is designed to be lightweight enough to avoid putting unnecessary strain on your telescope's focuser or mount. It balances structural integrity with a compact profile.
The ring is designed to provide a firm, secure hold, but it is recommended to ensure the interior surface is clean and the ring is tightened evenly. When installed correctly, it provides a stable mount without damaging the camera's exterior casing.
