Celestron Basic Smartphone Adapter: Connect, Capture, and Share Your Discoveries
Transform your astronomical or terrestrial observations into digital memories with the Celestron Basic Smartphone Adapter. This adapter is a bridge between your smartphone and a variety of optical devices, including telescopes, binoculars, spotting scopes, and microscopes. It allows you to capture stunning images and videos through the eyepiece of these optics, making it an ideal tool for amateur astronomers, nature enthusiasts, and microscope users.
The adapter is universally compatible with most smartphones and works with a wide range of telescope eyepieces, as well as any eyepiece with an outside diameter of 29mm to 45mm. Its usage is remarkably simple and intuitive: secure your smartphone onto the adapter, align the phone’s camera with the eyepiece, and then tighten the knobs to ensure a firm hold.
Crafted with a durable metal body, the adapter is built to withstand rigorous field use and adverse weather conditions. Its flexibility allows you to swiftly capture and share your observational experiences, whether it's a detailed lunar landscape, a rare bird in its natural habitat, or an intriguing microscopic structure.
While it's easy to use, note that some larger or bulkier phone cases, like folio-style cases, may need to be removed for optimal fit. Once your phone is mounted, you're not just limited to photography; you can still utilize all other features of your phone, including sending texts or updating social media with your latest captures.
To ensure compatibility with your optical device, simply measure the eyepiece's outside diameter; if it's within the 29mm to 45mm range, it's suitable for use with this adapter. However, it's important to note that this adapter is not compatible with riflescopes. With the Celestron Basic Smartphone Adapter, capturing and sharing your visual explorations has never been easier.
