this digiscope adapter is by far the greatest invention ever. for those of you interested in the hobby of amatuer astrophotogrphy this what you need. I have used the adapter for my camera, Canon SD 600, now for 2 months and have taken great pictures, and video of the moon, jupiter, mars, and well anything in the sky. the greatest feature is the light weight and sturdy construction, microadjustable windage, N, S, E, W<. non-maring clamp that mounts to the end of the eyepieces without damage. for me this is a starter to the real deal of CCD pictures which costs $$$$ more than your scope but if you are a true fan of astronomy this adapter is just for you.

Ok, but has limitations

Loosely constructed and limited travel adjustment provents use with a 35 mm camera. Recommended for small digital cameras only.

    Very nice looking product. Hard to judge the size of camera it would work with by the picture. When I recieved it I did not have a camera that would fit it. It is really suited for the compact point and shoot cameras.

    Comments about Zhumell Universal Digiscoping Adapter - Small:

    This adapter works just fine for the "casual" astrophotographer. I had my digital point and shoot set up and ready to go just minutes after opening the package. It's a little on the heavy side, not too much so.
    If you want to take some astrophotos without getting a bunch of accessories, this is the way to go.

      Comments about Zhumell Universal Digiscoping Adapter - Small:

      This camera adaptor will work with any scope having a 1 1/4" eyepiece and any digital camera that has a standard 1/4 x 20 threaded shoe mount. Simple to use and adjust, It is a must have item for astrophotography as well as Terrestrial. A great way to acheive breath taking distance shots without buying a expensive lense or new camera. I used mine with a Celestron C70 mini mak, and a Olympus FE-300 12 megapixel camera and was able to achieve some really great wild life close ups at over a 1000 yards. Also I was expecting the adaptor to be made of plastic, but was suprised to find out it's all aluminum!, and very well made. Bravo Telescopes.com and Zhumell!!

      Service and delivery were quick and professional. Highly recommended

        Customer Q & A

        Q1: How can i take pictures that i see through my dobsonian telescope?

        A: It's pretty tough to take pictures through a Dobsonian telescope. The scope's altazimuth mount and lack of an automated tracking device put long-exposure astrophotography out of reach. With a device like the Zhumell Universal T-Adapter and a T-ring made specifically for your brand of camera (plus the camera, of course), you might be able to snap a picture or two, but you'd have to point the scope first, take the eyepiece out, slip in the T-adapter/t-ring and camera, then shoot. It'd be almost impossible not to move the scope in the process, ruining your picture. One thing you COULD do is utilize a device like the Zhumell Digital Eyepiece. It would transmit what the scope "sees" to a laptop or PC, where it could be stored as still images or captured as live video. Here's the URL for the Digital Eyepiece; just paste it into your browser's address window: http://telescopes.com/products/zhumell-1-25in-digital-eyepiece-super-sale-closeout-32584.html.

        Q2: Does this work with the Celestron Powerseeker 127 EQ Telescope?

        A: Yes, you can use this in conjunction with your telescope for astrophotography with your compact camera.

        Q3: Will this work with my Canon PowerShot A480?

        A: Yes, you'll be able to connect your Canon PowerShot A480 to this adapter.

        Q4: What size camera will work with this mount?

        A: Any small/medium sized digital camera will connect to this mount, allowing you to focus it into your telescope.
