The media could not be loaded.The product is metal, and is sturdy and well made. I have a 6″ Orion Dobsonian, so it only works when you insert an eye-piece inside the adapter, per the instructions in the product description and what was provided. Because of having to insert the eyepieces inside the adapter, It only fits some of my eyepieces, like my 25mm, but not my 40mm.It took a little trial and error to get the 25mm eyepiece to sit correctly in the adapter. You may think it’s in all the way, but doublecheck before giving up. If the set screw doesn’t hold the eyepiece in place properly, it’s probably not all the way in. Once I got it properly assembled, I connected to my Canon 5D4 body and it worked. I was able to get reasonably sharp images.The hard part (no fault of the adapter) was sharpening the image since my old Orion is a beginner telescope and doesn’t have fine tuning on the focus dial. I included a short video where you can see me tyring to focus the image in the first few seconds. The clouds didn’t help either.Overall, I’m very satisfied and excited to put it to the test on some other objects besides the moon.

This was perhaps the least expensive option I found for Sony E Mount that included the T adapter and 1.25″ adapter. This locked up tight on an A7C with no issues. I then threaded on the 1.25″ adapter and it slid right into my refractor telescope in place of the mirror/prism. Picture quality will largely be a function of the camera, telescope, and user’s ability to manually focus. The adapter just holds things in place. For me there is quite a bit of vignette unless I use a 2x Barlow. A 2″ adapter should also reduce the effect but my telescope is 1.25″ eyepiece native.Unless you have an automated tracking mount it will be hard to take pictures of any small or deep space objects that will move across the sky quickly. Even for easier objects like the moon you will need to use a remote shutter release (computer or phone) or time delay as even the slightest vibrations will cause poor image quality. Terrestrial photos should be easier so long as the subject gives ample time to focus.

With new Sony lenses being very expensive, it makes sense to use my old Minolta lenses. The adapter itself works perfectly. It attaches the Minolta lens to your Sony E-Mount camera. The rest is up to you, the photographer. The a7iii has an assisted manual mode, with focus peaking, and focus magnification. It took me about a day (and a few websites and youtube videos) to get really comfortable. Now, I feel very comfortable, and have taken some nice pictures.also,I am very fussy on product quality, and this adapter exceeded my expectations. It is very well-made, from brass and stainless steel. It fits on my NEX-6 with a nice, solid feel – just like attaching a Sony lens. Same with attaching a sony lens to the front. I’ve had no issues with lenses or the adapter being too tight and sticking or with it being too loose. The blue aperture ring has been updated, and now has 6 click stops. It rotates with a smooth, precise feel.So far, it is working great, and photos taken with the sony lenses look fantastic.

I was going to return it but it is a nicely made unit. and for eight bucks I ordered the proper adapter online. do not believe when they say fits all Canon SLR it does not. I have the Canon Rebel t7 and it is way too small to fit. They did not send the wrong box either. on the label it said Canon SLR. But as stated, it was one of the nicer and well made units available in my opinion. it was worth ordering the adapter ring as needed.

I ordered this just before the eclipse in April 2024 and it arrived and I was able to mount my full fame Nikon dslr right onto my telescope and take amazing photos. Very easy to use and you can use it with a telescope eyepiece or without. Plenty of adjustability to allow you to find the focal plane.
