UNIVERSAL 1.25" & 2" DIGISCOPING ADAPTORS
These ingeniously designed digital camera adaptors allow photography directly through
the eyepiece of Astronomical Telescopes, Spotting Scopes and Microscopes.
It accepts most Compact Digital Cameras with tripod bush and is micro-adjustable for perfect centering of camera lens.
There are two models available to fit different diameter eyepieces and that telescope shown in the picture for
demonstration is NOT included!
Tele Vue Afocal Camera Adaptors
Tele Vue digital camera adapters allow solid, accurate attachment of digital cameras to
appropriate Tele Vue eyepieces for "afocal" imaging.
"Afocal" means collimated light between the telescope eyepiece and camera lens.
To minimize vignetting and maximize image quality.
Tele Vue suggest using the following Tele Vue eyepieces,
as their long eye relief best matches the internal pupil of the camera lens;
- Naglers: 22mm, 17mm, and 12mm Type 4 and 31mm Nagler type 5
- Panoptics: 35mm and 27mm
- Plossls: 40mm and 32mm
- Radians: All - with special Radian adaptor
- NB Tele Vue found the 35mm Panoptic achieves the
least vignetting in afocal applications.
One more thing to note is that because camera pupils move with zooming, you may find minimum vignetting
at the extremes of zoom positions. Results will vary depending on the camera used.
