Adapter: This adapter
was the first digiscoping adapter on the market, it’s simple
design enables a digital camera with a filter thread to be
quickly positioned over a telescope eyepiece, immediately
centralising it for a quick picture. Three locking screws hold
the adapter to the eyepiece (although only one is necessary),
so that it can be easily used with both straight and angled
scopes. This adapter is specifically made to fit a variety of
different eyepieces, and depending on which one you need it
will cost £49.99.
The table below shows the various adapters available, with the respective prices and the filter thread that they are made in. |
Please Note:
Tubes made with a 37mm thread can be reduced with the use of a step down ring, however this may increase vignetting. BAADER DIGISCOPE ADAPTER

The
Opticron Universal Digital Camera Adapter is designed to
allow you to take photographs using your digital camera or
camcorder in conjunction with a telescope as described above.
But because some digital compact cameras do not have screw
threads on their lens assemblies to allow for direct coupling,
the UDCA carves out its own niche in the market by attaching
to the column of the eyepiece and then directly into the
cameras’ tripod mount. The Camera is fixed onto the Adapter
and can be adjusted in three planes to enable correct
positioning with respect to the eyepiece. This system is very
similar to how early digiscopers used to attach cameras to
scopes, and is only really needed if you want to use a camera
that you already own which does not have a screw thread.
