Swarovski have just sent me their new UCA ( universal -type ) adapter for the new zoom eyepiece (25 -50x ). http://www.swarovskioptik.us/en_us/products/52#
It's not a swing-away type , like the DCB , but I like it . It takes a while to work out how to set it up and the instructions help a bit. Interestingly it is reversible to handle a DSLR with 50 mm lens as well. You could leave it setup this way to quickly change from DSLR to digicam. I would have liked to have had two connecting plates to make this switch quicker. It helps to have a balance bar , like the Swarovski Telescope Rail to that you can keep the whole thing steady as a DSLR will make it back heavy.
These photos show the Ricoh GX100 and the Nikon D90 setup.
