Features

Orion SteadyPix Deluxe Camera Mount
  • Securely holds virtually any camera up to an eyepiece for afocal photography of celestial objects
  • Compatible with all 1.25" eyepieces and most 2" eyepieces (up to 61mm in diameter)
  • Works with virtually any point-and-shoot digital, SLR, and DSLR cameras
  • Rubber-lined eyepiece clamp prevents marring of eyepiece
  • Bracket rotation allows visual access of eyepiece without disrupting camera/eyepiece alignment

While observing the Moon or planets, have you ever thought to yourself: "If only I had a way to connect my digital camera to my telescope"? Now you can! The ingenious, easy-to-use Orion SteadyPix Deluxe Camera Mount provides an amazingly affordable way for anyone to begin capturing impressive images of the Moon, planets, Sun (with a proper filter), and terrestrial objects.

The SteadyPix Deluxe Camera Mount securely couples just about any "point-and-shoot" digital camera, SLR (single lens reflex), or DSLR (digital single lens reflex) camera to a telescope eyepiece, and allows adjustment to achieve precise focus and centering for a focal photography. The rubber-lined eyepiece clamp helps prevent any marring or damage to your telescope eyepieces. This versatile mount offers three dimensions of adjustment (horizontal, vertical, and depth) to accomodate almost any camera size or lens position. You can even rotate the camera away from the telescope eyepiece for visual access, without having to remove the SteadyPix Deluxe Camera Mount.

The SteadyPix Deluxe has been improved to fit all 1.25" telescope eyepieces and most 2" telescope eyepieces (up to 61mm in diameter). It also features a sturdier all-metal design for increased rigidity and performance. So if you've got the desire to dabble in astrophotography, the Orion SteadyPix Deluxe Camera Mount is a great way to get started! Weighs just 10 oz. and includes a one-year limited warranty.

Orion SteadyPix Deluxe Camera Mount
Reviewer: Michael Scherman
A huge improvment over its excellent predecessor, this has alot more range of motion for improved camera positioning and is better for off-sized eyepieces. Two things to improve this: 1) add a slightly longer bolt to tighten better around smaller (1.1") diameter eyepiece barrels (only 3 more mm of travel would do this) and 2) lengthen the arm more to hold a DSLR with a lens on. Otherwise a nice and very usable mount!

Finally found a camera mount that would work with all my eyepieces. Simple design makes it a quick solution when you have to change eyepieces. Very sturdy, holds my DSLR with lens with no problems. The best thing is that it can attach to my 38mm Q70 and my Orion Stratus eyepieces without scratching them. If you have a Q70 I will recommend this mount to you.

The new SteadyPix Deluxe Camera Mount is a must-have for those wishing to dip into astrophotography as well as boosting their daytime photography. The mount is light enough to fit on the eyepiece of a good quality pair of binoculars. While a DSLR is too heavy for this kind of setup, a smaller, and lighter digital camera such as the Nikon Coolpix or Kodak Easyshare fits the bill. The stability and adjustments avaliable on the new SteadyPix Deluxe are awesome!

Reviewer: Darwin Orrell
The SteadyPix gave a pretty solid platform for some afocal opportunities last night. My only complaint so far is that I was a bit clumsy handling the mount in the dark. More practice may fix that small complaint. All in all, the product seems to meet it's advertised expectations.
