Meade Variable Tele-Extender

Picture it!

For photography of the moon, planets and stars through catadioptric telescope using 1.25-inch eyepieces, this Meade variable TeleXtender camera adapter is a versatile choice. It incorporates a machined, sliding mechanism that permits variable projection distances during eyepiece-projection photography. And this eliminates the need to switch to a higher-power eyepiece for additional enlargement. Two thumpscrews lock the sliding cell in position at the desired projection distance, and a third screw locks the eyepiece in position. A separable, thread-in unit also permits prime-focus photography.

Performance is excellent, with virtual elimination of color fringing. All parts, too, are of machined aluminum and brass. The 1.25-inch barrel is threaded for filters. Use with a T-Mount, ordered separately, for your brand of 35mm camera body.
