More Info

The 1.25" Universal Camera Adapter allows attachment of a camera body to reflector and refractor telescopes for either prime-focus or eyepiece-projection photography (hence the term "universal"). The adapter slides into the eyepiece holder as an eyepiece normally would.

This universal adapter is composed of two detachable parts: a prime-focus adapter (or "T-adapter") for prime-focus photography, and a fixed-length or variable extension tube for eyepiece-projection photography. A thumbscrew in the extension tube holds the telescope eyepiece in place.

This combination of prime-focus and eyepiece-projection camera adapter has a non-variable barrel design that allows a fixed projection distance for eyepiece-projection photography. Fits reflector and refractor telescopes with 1.25" telescope eyepiece holders.

This Standard Universal Camera Adapter is precision made of black-anodized aluminum and is compatible with 1.25" telescope focusers and many 1.25" telescope eyepieces (some eyepieces have housing diameters that are too large to fit inside the adapter). The barrel of the adapter is threaded for filters. A T-ring for your specific camera model (sold separately) is required to couple your camera body to the universal adapter.

Product delivered in timely manner...simple and got the job done with ease. Unpacked the product and later took some fantastic pics. The one pictured here is from a canon 40D, 10 inch Orion reflector (fl/ 4.5), a 20 mm eyepiece, 1/10 sec at 800 ISO. The important fact here is there was no stacking!! This is only one picture taken.
Yes, I recommend this product!

It's nice to buy from Orion as I know without a doubt that the item is always going to work as advertised. The only time it didn't turned out to be my fault as I ordered the wrong item! The quality is also beyond reproach. Every item I have purchased is made with quality in mind.

I left image quality blank because frankly, I was very disappointed. Not due to the adapter, but due to comparing it to Orion's 2" Prime Focus adapter. I only tried this with pretty cheap eyepieces so my results may not be typical.
Favorite viewing location:??Dark site just outside of town
