Orion SteadyPix.

This nifty device holds virtually any digital or film camera up to the eyepiece of any telescope
to capture images of the Moon, planets, bright deep-sky objects, or terrestrial subjects. An
improvement over existing designs, SteadyPix locks the camera lens in position at just the
right distance and orientation relative to the eyepiece to achieve precise focus and centering of
the image for afocal photography.

SteadyPix features all-metal construction for maximum rigidity. It attaches directly to any
standard 1.25" telescope eyepiece with one of two felt-lined eyepiece clamps provided (for
standard or large-size 1.25" eyepieces). The camera threads on to a 1/4"-20 pedestal via the
threaded hole in the camera body. There are no additional parts to buy as with some other
models. SteadyPix’s three adjustment points let you position any brand of digital or 35mm
camera close to the eyepiece for picture taking. Looking at the camera’s viewscreen or
through its viewfinder, you then focus he image and snap the shot!

Eyepieces with long eye relief are recommended to minimize vignetting of images. Our
Lanthanum series eyepieces are ideal (standard series, not Superwides). Fits 1.25"
eyepieces only.

Why not give through-the-telescope photography a try? The results may surprise you.
