T-Ring Adapters was created by StylishD
hi everybody, there's plenty of expertise within this forum in astrophotography and I thought I might avail of some if anybody is willing.
I was wondering how do I figure out what type of T-Ring I should get for my camera since I don't think any specific one is made. I own a Fuji Finepix S602 and I have no idea how I attach it to my Celestron 130 SLT so I can take piccies, can anybody help me???
Thanks in advance

And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time. . . .

Thanx Matthew, the first one looks like a good option, I've never seen one of those contraptions before :shock:
But certainly solves the problem, thanx again for your direction

I doubt that will make much of a difference. The reason being many camera manufacturers build their digital cameras from the non-digital body. There's the Canon EOS300 35mm film camera, and then the EOS300D digital 35mm version. It is more to do with making the lenses compatible with each other. It is in the manufacturers best interests really, in order to keep existing customers (if all they have to do is upgrade the technology/camera body).

well just wait to hear from the other people on the board before you buy anything! The camera you have might not fit on the stage! Plus the contraption only take 28mm to 45mm eyepieces! Plus i just googled your camera and its a fine camera! But it looks quite big and the camera thats in the pic with the contraption is very small!
