Maximize the power of your optics by adding a telescope to your 35mm optical or digital camera, spotting scope or microscope. Wildlife photographers, astrophotographers, laboratory researchers and those who are just curious to see what lies beyond the horizon can benefit from the use of a telescope attachment kit for their imaging devices. A telescope attachment kit may contain T-mount adaptors, camera-specific adaptors, eyepieces or other accessory parts.
Instructions
Find and Use the Right Telescope Attachments
1. Review the model number and product details for your telescope and determine whether a T-adapter needs to screw into its cell threads on the back or into the port on its eyepiece.
2. Check the product specifications on your camera to determine which T-ring and T-thread you will need to buy.
3. Purchase pieces separately or locate a kit that includes all the pieces you will need to attach your telescope to your camera.
4. Screw the T-adapter onto the rear cell threads of your telescope.
5. Attach the T-ring for your camera model according to manufacturer's directions. This may entail removing the eyepiece and screwing the T-ring onto the 42mm threads.
6. Thread the T-adapter to the T-ring, joining the telescope to the camera, and you are ready to use your enhanced optics for imaging.
