    This Product is no problem to use with my Canon 8.0 SD-elph point and shoot digital. If could be better, it would have to be a custom setup. This item came with my Konuspot 80 MM Spotting Scope. I was able just to look at the picture and set it up in only 4-5 minutes.

    Good but not quite

    Product does not work on the spotter scope that I have. This is a good idea as long as the camera and spotter scope will work with each other.

    Product does not work on the spotter scope that I have. This is a good idea as long as the camera and spotter scope will work with each other.
    It is well made and serves the purpose that it was made for. But the product have to work together.
    Adjustment is a little difficult. Can be done with some patience.

        I use this adapter with my Celestron telescope. It attaches to the 1.25" viewfinder and firmly holds the camera. Even though I am a beginner, I think it works great and recommend it!! Best price online as well!

                      This will not fit on my Kowa TSN 663 eyepieces. The opening made to go around the eyepiece is simply too small. I think it was made for older scopes when the eyepieces had smaller diameters. It appears to be well made. Too bad the company didn't update their product.

                      I am using this item to take bird photos with my Celestron Spotting scope. I have a Pentax Optio S4i mounted and it works pretty well. The mount is heavy but sturdy. For a non pro like me it fits my needs

                          Works good. Kind of a pain to focus scope and then reattach camera only to find subject is no longer in view.
