Yes that would probably work. In my case the camera inserts with a dovetail so you can pack it to some degree before it affects the other corners.

You may have to hold the shim when screwing it in as at some point its going to grab and spin the packer with it.

Alternatively you could put it before the filter wheel if there is a dovetail fitting in your system.
