When it comes to capturing images through a telescope or spotting scope, a T-Ring is among the essential accessories you'll require. If you happen to own a Canon EOS camera body, the Celestron EOS T-Ring is precisely what you need.
To utilize the Canon EOS T-Ring, follow these steps: remove the lens from your camera, and in its place, attach the T-Ring, just as you would when mounting a lens. The telescope-facing end of the T-Ring is equipped with threads that can accommodate various camera adapters, including the Celestron T-Adapter. The choice of adapter hinges on the type of photography you intend to pursue.
If you wish to capture images of both terrestrial and celestial scenes, a simple T-Adapter can transform your telescope or spotting scope into a formidable telephoto lens. For those with a Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope boasting standard rear cell threads, the #93633-A T-Adapter is the optimal selection. Conversely, if you own a refractor or spotting scope, the Universal T-Adapter (#93625) with its 1.25" barrel insert is likely your best bet. Additionally, there are specialized T-Adapters tailored for the EdgeHD optical system, including one for the 8-inch EdgeHD (#93644) and another for the 9.25, 11, and 14-inch EdgeHD (#93646).
Prime focus photography has gained popularity, particularly for capturing short exposure images of terrestrial subjects and celestial objects such as the Moon.
