Celestron SLR (35mm OR Digital) Camera Adapter for the NexStar 4, C90 & C130 Spotting Scopes - Requires Camera-Specific T-Mount Adapter
Ultra telephoto photography is easily achieved with your telescope by purchasing this SLR camera adapter. You'll need to take precautions to minimize vibrations, such as locking up the mirror if possible as well as using a cable release or remote control to fire the shutter.
First, remove the eyepiece. Next, attach the SLR camera adapter where the eyepiece would normally be attached to the telescope, and screw in a t-mount adapter to the opposite end of the SLR camera adapter. Now you can attach your camera to the t-mount and you are ready to begin taking pictures!
Note! Your camera will need to be in fully manual exposure mode, although some brands of camera may also work in aperture-priority autoexposure mode. Additionally, if there is a switch on the camera which chooses the focus mode, that switch must indicate manual focusing.

Comments about Celestron SLR (35mm OR Digital) Camera Adapter:
When paired with the mating Celestron Nikon T Adapter, my vintage (Barrel screw focus) C90 would not focus to infinity with a D200 DSLR. Focus was limited to about 40 feet or less. Back focus appears to be too short for the DSLR. I'm not sure if an optical M42 to Nikon T Adapter would correct the focus issue as I'm hesitant to put more money into a marginal mirror lens. The Celestron camera adapter is well made from aluminum; too bad it doesn't work with the vintage C90. A better application/specification description would have saved me the money and time.
