That depends on the telescope. My Celestrons have a prime focus camera adapter to which you attach a standard t-mount, similar to this one: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/202137-REG/Celestron_93633_A_SLR_35mm_OR_Digital.html If you are doing eyepiece projection photography of the moon or planets then you need this: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/202147-REG/Celestron_93643_Deluxe_Tele_Extender.html Other makes of telescopes will have similar accessories. Maybe your friend already has the adapters, and all you need to supply is the t-mount. --- Steven Sharpe - The Office Gallery [email protected] -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
