Ultra afocal/parfocal digital camera support

The easiest way to get into astro-photography! The Ultra is a simple and lightweight way to mount any camera onto a telescope and take pictures through the instrument's eyepiece. The Ultra does not use your camera's filter ring, instead the tripod socket carries the camera's weight. Clever design allows the Ultra to fit virtually every camera available.

Ultra-T digital camera support
Our popular design afocal camera support now with added T-thread versatility

Virtually identical in appearance and function to the Ultra Standard (PH047 above) but with the new added benefit of allowing T-threaded accessories to be attached directly.

The 1.6x Magni-Max Image Amplifier
1.25" thread-on supplementary lens for visual and photographic image amplification

A compact simple supplementary lens barrel that boosts magnification and image scale by 1.6x.

The Magni-Max 1.6x supplementary lens unit threads directly onto the nosepiece of the DigimaxT 40 AC520 eyepiece system (and any other 1.25" eyepiece equipped with a standard filter thread) and increases the magnification by effectively reducing the focal length of the eyepiece by around 60%. In the case of the DigimaxT 40mm that's a reduction down to 24mm! The Magni-Max gives a magnification power boost of around 1.6x but fully preserves the vignette reducing and camera positioning features of the DigimaxT 40. The Magni-Max has many uses and performs as brilliantly visually as it does photographically. The Magni-Max can be fitted to camera (webcams, video camera etc) nosepieces and delivers the same 60% magnification increase. One of the great benefits of the Magni-Max is that, unlike conventional Barlow lenses, it delivers a powerful magnification boost but only increases the length of the camera or eyepiece nosepiece by 12mm! The Magni-Max supplementary lens system is a twin lens cemented construction and is fully anti-reflection multi-coated. Supplied in a dust and shock proof case.

Webcam Thread to 1.25" Adapter

Allows most popular webcams, like the Philips' ToUcam, to be attached to standard 1.25" eyepiece holders. Simply remove the lens from the webcam and screw in the adaptor. Threaded for standard colour filters and turned with internal stepping to combat stray light. Manufactured from black Delrin.

1.25" to 2" off-axis eyepiece adaptor

From a side view this adaptor looks like a standard 1.25" to 2" eyepiece adaptor ­ but from above or below things look very different! The off-axis positioning of the 1.25" hole is designed to allow CCD auto-guiders (or other cameras) to be rotated in the 2" eyepiece holder and progressively sample the whole 2" eyepiece field rather than just the centre. Normally if your auto-guider scope is supported in rings, you would need to either fiddle with the rings or change the primary scope's pointing position ­ not very convenient. This simple modification to a standard adaptor lets you easily investigate the whole field of view of your scope by simply rotating the adaptor ­ very convenient. Surprisingly the adaptor allows nearly 16mm of lateral movement across the field. Obviously this product is only suitable for use with scopes fitted with a 2" focuser. The off-axis adaptor has two brass chrome-plated lock screws, and is supplied with an additional two hard nylon thumb screws to allow greater slippage control if required. The adaptor nosepiece has an anti-slip recess and is threaded for standard 2" filters. The adaptor is CNC precision-machined from aluminium and has a black anodized finish.
