The hyperstar attaches to the Schmidt plate, right? How heavy is your camera - could it be flexing the adapters / plate?
Thanks David. Nah, the corrector is built like a pizza stone. It won't budge and M17 was right up so it's not flex, like M16 the night before. Same thing happened. Bugger if I know what it is

Greg.
Thanks Greg. That's the Hyperstar. It's a triplet that replaces the secondary in an SCT bringing the whole system down to F/1.8 or 504mm FL.
