Designed to clamp directly onto 78mm or 90mm ZWO camera bodies, this simple accessory is the key to achieving perfectly clean, round stars with your HyperStar imaging 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\u003eA 180-Degree Arc for Spike-Free Stars\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen imaging with a HyperStar, power and data cables running from your camera to the edge of the optical tube act like extra spider vanes, creating unsightly diffraction spikes on bright stars. The HyperStar Cable Router solves this by forcing the cables to follow a 180-degree curve. A curved obstruction does not produce sharp, linear spikes, preserving the natural, round shape of your stars and resulting in cleaner, more professional-looking astrophotos.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSecure Cable Management:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cables are held firmly in place by retainers that slide into integrated grooves along the router's curved body, preventing them from shifting during an imaging session.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaintained Star Shape:\u003c\/strong\u003e By turning a straight-line obstruction into a gentle curve, the router diffuses incoming light in a way that avoids the classic cross-shaped spike pattern.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-bg-light\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-section\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDurable Clamps for 78mm \u0026amp; 90mm ZWO Cameras\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach router is 3D printed from a durable, heat-resistant carbon fiber PETG filament, ensuring it holds its shape and function through cold nights and warm days.
