Works Well, Tight Fit

I wanted to take photos through Vortex Razor spotting scope using my R5 and R6 cameras. It was quite confusing figuring out what parts I needed, so after talking to the customer support it now makes sense. Most of the time you need TWO parts: (1) adapter that connects to the scope (this product), and (2) adapter that connects to the camera (separate product, camera-specific). These two adapters connect themselves via a T-Mount, so neither scope nor camera have anything to do with the T-Mount (the source of my confusion). To compilcate it further, you have three optical elements: (1) spotting scope body, (2) eyepiece, and (3) camera lens. A setup must include the scope body, but the other two might or might not be used. In my setup, I am using a spotting scope as-is (body and eyepiece), but no camera lens - that's where the second adapter kicks in (different product, you muct purchase it separately). The second adapater provides a hollow RF to T-Mount functionality, so camera (without lens) can be rigidly attached to this adapter. Once you get the extra camera-specific adapter, you can connect the two adapters at their respective T-Mounts, keep them together and forget about the T-Mounts. It gives you a single unit that has an RF mount on one end and a compression fitting around the eyepiece on the other. After figuring out how to connect it all, the connection is very sturdy, which was my primary concern. I didn't have to use any inserts, just put the adapter around the eyepiece and turn the locking ring until it's tight. Once tight, it didn't move. The image quality will depend on the scope and what you're trying to photograph, the same issues as with any slow super-telephoto lens. The image will lose come clarity and the setup introduces additional abberations, but it works quite well in daylight if you don't pixel-peep. Final note - don't forget to change camera settings to allow shutter release without lens. The RF to T-Mount adapter (the other adapter) is just a mechanical connector and certainly doesn't get recognized as a lens. There is no aperture control either (obviously) .

Another charmer

Same as the lens adapter review---this one chosen in accord with the advise of the B&H staff and, works perfectly with my spotting scope!

question

this product seems to need a ring of the correct size to fit the filter thread of the camera lens lens. No choice of a ring size seems to be offered. Do you sell those separately or what is the situation?

When using the Novagrade T-Mount Digiscoping Adapter, one needs to have a specific camera dedicated T ring. The T (telescope) ring, is available for all camera mounts for example: for Nikon: https://bhpho.to/2foCBsv, for Canon: https://bhpho.to/2bczbHc

The Novagrade T-Mount Adapter is for use with an interchangeable lens camera. It would not work with a night vision optic.

This model connects to the lens, not to the camera. Novagrade includes a filter ring adapter, but you do not show the option to select it according to the lens filter size. Can you please clarify?
Asked by: Eduardo
Please investigate before answering. This specific model of adapter connects to the lens, not to the camera body without a lens. https://novagrade.com/shop/camera-adapter/ It includes a filter ring adapter, but B&H does not offer it, so the product is incomplete.

What sized T-ring does it connect to? I assume a t-ring is like a filter ring but each lens may need a different diameter ring. My favorite fixed focal length lens has a 49mm Daly light filter on it.
Asked by: Tim
This adapts to your camera with a specific T ring not the lens. If for example, you have a canon EF mount camera, you will need a T ring to allow connection to that camera. Then you can attach the Novagrade to the camera. Once that's done, the camera with Novagrade will fit on to the eyepiece of a spotting scope for Digiscoping Photography.
