Is there a good working universal camera adapter?! (1 Viewer)

laccaria · Mar 11, 2012

Hi folks,
i am searching for an universal camera adapter to be able to adapt my compact camera to an Baader Mark III zoom, an Meopta S1 zoom and an Nikon MCII zoom eyepiece... I thought about an adapter like this one from Celestron...

Would this be a good choice or are there any other options to use one adapter for three different zoom eyepiece? Has anyone tried such an Celestron adapter?
Many thanks and best wishes

Hi Sebastian,

Sorry for late reply.

I started digiscoping with this adapter (or a very similar one), but quickly upgraded to a Baader optics adapter (better) and later on SRB Griturm (even better).

The Celestron adapter works OK, fits in principle all cameras but is not great to use in the field since it does not have the swinging arm. And the mechanical precision is not exact.

Hope this helps
