The Swarovski TLS APO 30mm Digiscoping Lens for ATX / STX spotting scopes is a proprietary adapter used to connect a DSLR or mirrorless camera body with APS-size sensors to the viewing module of ATX / STX series spotting scopes. When the TLS APO, T2 adapter, and camera body are mounted to the spotting scope eyepiece, users are treated to a truly stunning digiscoping experience. The TLS APO has a 30mm lens that perfectly aligns the camera sensor with the focal plane of the transmitted image. Regardless of the camera used, you will capture contrast-rich and sharp video and still images using the premium optics of your Swarovski spotting scope. A camera and T2 camera adapter are required to complete the Swarovski digiscoping system, and are not included.

If you use a Canon 7D and just the TLS APO, should you get a clear photo, or is it slightly blurry like mine turns out? Photos are good on the scope, just concerned something is wrong with my adapter or the way I am using it
I cannot answer your question without knowing what scope you are using.

Can these be used on a Canon R6
full frame mirrorless?
According to Swarovski: Its excellent optical quality makes it particularly attractive to the most discerning digiscopers who want to use system cameras (23mm), APS-C/DX single-lens reflex cameras (30mm) or full-frame cameras (43mm).
It would seem that the 43mm version of the TLS APO would be most appropriate for a full frame mirrorless.

question
I recently bought a Canon 5d Mark iii. I started with teh the EOS 7d and the TLS APO. When I fit the TLS APO on the Canon 5d I get a lot of vignetting. Is this because it is a full frame camera ? and what can be done aganinst it? With the 7d I had no problem. Just poor image quality with the TLS APO ;-((Ger
Your right about the vignetting. The APO is designed for a crop sensor camera like the 7D. However, there is a work around if you want to use it on your 5D. Go to the fourth menu in the Settings menu and change theAspect ratio. I would do some test shots to see which one you like best. the other option is of coursecropping the pic your editing software. BTW I sold my Spotting Scope gear. Hope tis helps.

question
Can I use these TLS APO Digiscope Lense for my Canon EOS M6 with a good result?
Hello Ingvar - yes, your M6 has the APS-C sized sensor, so the TLS APO 30 is the model that is optimized to work best with it. You would also need a T-mount (also called T-2 mount) for Canon EOS in order to attach the TLS APO 30 to the camera body. The TLS APO 30 is in fact a 30mm pancake type lens that is securely mounted in a rugged, waterproof housing that attaches directly to the spotting scope. Once assembled, the EOS M6, TLS APO 30, and the spotting scope are now a Super Telephoto system. The actual focal length and f/stop of the lens will depend on exactly which spotting scope model you own, and what power the eyepiece is set at.All three of the TLS APO lenses were optimized for use on the X-series (ATX, STX) Modular Spotting Scopes, but they will also do excellent work on the older S-series (ATS, STS, ATM, STM) spotting scopes. One important note - since the X-scopes and the S-scopes use a different attachment ring for the TLS APO, you would order the TLS APO 30 for your specific spotting scope type. Optically, for photography, the Modular 95 (ATX or STX) is the winner in both lens speed and resolution. However, the Modular 85 does have a shorter minimum focusing distance (10.5 feet for the 85, 15 feet for the 95) in case you are planning on using the system for photographing small, close subjects like dragonflies or butterflies.
