About SBIG AO-8 Cover Plate

Discover the versatility and functionality of the AO-8 Cover Plate, a must-have accessory for older model cameras. This sturdy and reliable cover plate is specifically designed to convert AO-8T to AO-8, ensuring seamless compatibility with vintage camera models that are no longer in production.

Notably, this high-quality cover plate can also be utilized to convert AO-8A to AO-8, providing a professional solution for photographers who value their older equipment. Please be aware that in this scenario, the I2C cable will need to be replaced to ensure optimal functionality.

In some rare instances, our customers have creatively used this durable cover plate to connect an AO-8 directly to the front of an STT camera. While this unique configuration eliminates the ability to track a guide star, it opens up possibilities for special OEM applications.

Experience the reliability and precision fit of the AO-8 Cover Plate, a testament to our commitment to supporting all photographers, regardless of the age of their equipment.
