Adaptor for Fuji F30 / Leica APO62 - help!! (1 Viewer)

I've looked through various other threads trying to find an adaptor that works for this set up which is not a swing arm affair. Does anyone have any clues?

I currently use a Nikon Coolpix 4300 with LCE screw adaptor which allows me to carry the camera and adaptor together in a pocket and slot over the scope eyepiece when needed. I would like to replicate this set up with the Fuji but can't seem to see anything amongst the plethora of choices which works the same or similar. Someone must have some guidance!!!

FoxFoto universal thread adapter plus FoxFoto digiscoping adapter large (specify you want the new, larger large one!).

These are only available on ebay.co.uk, from Mike in Poland. Here's the link to the universal thread, though I don't see any of his other adapters listed at present - I think he's having some more made - just email him:

I have this setup and it works fine.

Hope that helps

I thought that SRB-Griturn also made sleeve type adapters - drop them an email with your requirements. You'll find them a very clued up company and so very keen to help.

They make a sleeve but if you want to have a thread attachment for the camera you'll have to get the fox-foto setup. It uses the tripod thread to place a screw thread in front of the eyepiece...
