Are you using an eyepiece holder to mount your DSLR or a solid screw type adapter? The tilt is likely in the eyepiece holder if that is what you are using.

Thanks Greg. I'm using A T-ring / M42 adapter on the MPCC MKIII. I see astro shop have focal plane tilt adapters. It might be worthwhile for me to invest in one if I can't otherwise fix it.
