alpha camera and telescopes

Unread post by stevecim »

Hi All

Has anyone used a Alpha with a T-ring and telescope? if yes where did you get your t-ring from. I ordered one years ago for my film slr's but it never fitted right, the cost of sending it back to the states was more then I paid for it. :)

Cheers, Stephen

Hi Steve,
I couldn't work out from your post which country you are in, obviously not the US, but if you're in Oz you can try Bintel they stock quite a range of photographic supplies for astrophotography.

Hi Stephen

Are you using an Astro scope or a spotting scope?
