The adapter is designed to connect a camera to a telescope for astrophotography, enabling you to capture high-quality images of celestial bodies.
The adapter needs to be used with a precision of +/-0.3mm or better to maintain the quality of the images. Any deviation from this precision could potentially affect the quality of your astrophotography.
The adapter is specifically designed for use with certain models like the Celestron C11, but it's versatile enough to be used with other compatible telescopes as well.

How to achieve optimal astrophotography results The Baader Planetarium UFC S70/C9.25/C11 Hyperstar/SC/HD Adapter with S70 Dovetail Ring is your answer. This high-quality, durable adapter is designed to connect your camera to a telescope for capturing stunning celestial images.
The precision of the adapter is crucial for maintaining image quality. With this innovative product, you can adapt your camera to the Hyperstar system with a precision of +/-0.3mm or better. Any deviation from this precision could potentially affect the quality of your images.
To illustrate, consider a Celestron C11 telescope, which has a backfocus of 59.7mm. If you use filters with a thickness of 2mm, typically used for 2"/M48-housings, the focus shifts 0.66 in the extrafocal direction. As a general guideline, a filter moves the focus in the extrafocal direction for 1/3 of the filter's thickness.
To calculate the correct adjustment, subtract the flange focal distance of your camera from this value (rounded to 60.7mm). The remaining distance is then adjusted by the UFC and its adapters.
This versatile and stylish adapter, made by the reputable brand Baader Planetarium, is a favorite among astrophotographers. Its high ratings and positive reviews are a testament to its reliability and effectiveness. Enhance your astrophotography experience with the Baader Planetarium UFC S70/C9.25/C11 Hyperstar/SC/HD Adapter with S70 Dovetail Ring.
