OPTICRON UNIVERSAL CAMERA ADAPTER
The Universal Digital Camera Adapter is designed to allow you take high magnification photographs using Opticron telescopes and eyepieces in conjunction with most digital compact cameras and some digital camcorders using eyepiece projection. Many digital compact cameras do not have screw threads on the lens assemblies to allow for direct coupling, so the UDCA is designed as a three-way adjustable balance plate that fixes directly to the telescope eyepiece. The camera is fixed onto the UDCA and can be adjusted in three planes to enable correct positioning with respect to the eyepiece. The vertical position of the balance plate can be fixed in order to swing the camera + balance plate in and out of position. This feature allows you to alternate between taking pictures and viewing through the eyepiece in the normal way. Mounting the UDCA requires an eyepiece dia. less than or equal to 56mm and fixed (non rotating) eyepiece tube length of 15mm.

NIKON FSB FIELDSCOPE DIGITAL CAMERA BRACKET

Each Nikon FSB bracket allows you to connect your Nikon Fieldscope to a specific Coolpix digital camera and connect it to the Nikon DS Wide eyepiece. The FSB adapters can be easily detached from the scope to return to normal birdwatching use.

UCA - Universal Camera Adapter
A single adapter for compact and digital single lens reflex cameras. Suitable for all SWAROVSKI OPTIK telescopes. For a quick change from observation to photography and with the added benefit of being extremely secure, steady and compact. It is also incredibly light at only 350 grammes. The newly developed UCA from SWAROVSKI OPTIK leaves nothing to be desired. And the best part of all: Thanks to the innovative SWAROFAST function, you only need top adjust the position of your camera once in relation to your telescope. The camera can then be removed from the adapter and placed back in exactly the same position without any need for readjustment.

DCA - Digital Camera Adapter
Experience nature with the telescope. With your camera attached to the DCA, it can stay in your pocket protected from wind and rain until you wish to take a photograph. With a few small movements the digital camera is attached to the telescope eyepiece just prior to taking the photo. The DCA digital camera adapter melds camera and telescope into a sturdy single unit.

DCB - Digital Camera Base
With one simple up and down pivoting movement, the SWAROVSKI OPTIK DVB digital camera base makes it possible to switch between observation mode and photography mode in a matter of seconds. The DCB can be fitted very easily to the observation telescopes of the ATM/STM 80/65 (HD) ands ATS/STS 80/65 (HD) series and is the perfect solution for spontaneous photography.

TLS800 - Telephoto Lens System
The TLS 800 is suitable for all single lens reflex cameras - whether classic or digital. It is a photographic lens and telescope eyepiece in one. The telescope and single lens reflex camera combine to form a photo unit with a focal length of 800mm. High-powered, compact and favourably priced.
