iOptron 166mm Dovetail Plate for SkyTracker Mount

This iOptron plate adapter was originally intended for the SkyTracker Camera Mount. However we have found this dovetail plate works perfectly with all iOptron mounts as well as a wide variety of other mounts. This Vixen-style dovetail plate is 6.5" long, and is drilled with threaded holes for the iOptron ball head or the counterweight. With the addition of this adapter, you can ride two DSLR cameras on the SkyTracker Mount at once, or counterweight a heavier system if you choose.

Julian V. ★★★★★

The machining on this plate is precise, so it fits snugly into my mount's saddle without any wobble. I've used it to balance a DSLR and a small telephoto lens, and it held everything steady during a 3-minute exposure. Exactly what I needed for a cleaner polar alignment setup.

Henry ★★★★★

Swapped out the stock plate on my tracker and this 166mm one locked in rock solid with zero play. The machining is clean and the screw holes aligned perfectly, so setup took under two minutes. Definitely the upgrade I needed for heavier gear.

Owen R. ★★★★★

This dovetail plate fits my existing gear with zero slop, and the 166mm length is just right for balancing my camera rig. The machining is clean and precise, so everything lines up perfectly.
