These adapters are precisely machined to set the correct spacing for cameras requiring 17.5mm of back focus. With options for standard M42, M48, and M54 threads, you can achieve a secure, rigid attachment for a wide range of dedicated astronomy cameras.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-bg-light\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-section\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eStandard Adapters for 17.5mm Back Focus Cameras\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe standard Starizona HyperStar 14 adapter is the most direct solution for attaching a camera with 17.5mm of back focus, a common standard for many ZWO, QHY, and other CMOS\/CCD cameras. Simply choose the adapter with the thread—M42, M48, or M54—that matches your camera's optical window or included extension rings. This single-piece solution ensures perfect sensor placement for sharp, focused stars across the entire ultra-fast focal ratio of the HyperStar 14 system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-bg-light\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-section\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIntegrating Filters: Adapters for 20mm \u0026amp; 21mm Drawers\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor imagers who need to use filters, Starizona offers specialized HyperStar 14 adapters designed to accommodate third-party filter drawers. These versions maintain the critical 17.5mm camera back focus while adding the correct spacing for either a 20mm thick M54 filter drawer or a 21mm thick M42\/M48 filter drawer. This allows you to easily swap between LRGB, narrowband, or light pollution filters without upsetting the sensitive optical alignment of the HyperStar system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-bg-light\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-section\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eModular Adapter Tops: Swap M42, M48 \u0026amp; M54 Threads\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you use multiple cameras with different thread sizes but the same 17.5mm back focus, the \"Adapter Top Only\" option is an economical choice. Instead of buying a complete second adapter, you can simply unthread the top of your existing standard HyperStar 14 adapter and replace it with a new top. This allows you to switch from an M42 camera to an M54 camera, for example, in seconds, saving both cost and storage space in your accessory case.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-accordion\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"DAV-accordion-Q\"\u003eWhat camera back focus is the standard Starizona HyperStar 14 adapter designed for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-accordion-A\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll standard Starizona HyperStar 14 camera adapters are pre-set for cameras that have a native back focus of \u003cstrong\u003e17.5mm\u003c\/strong\u003e.
