ZWO CANON M42 ADAPTER

$109.00 AUD
SKU: ZWO-EOS-T2-II

ZWO

  • M42 x 0.75 Male
  • Optical thickness: 31 mm


 

This ZWO adapter includes two parts (EOS to T2 adapter and 5mm T2 extender). It is suitable for all ASI cameras with a T2 (M42) female thread.

The 5mm extender increases the optical thickness of the adapter to 17.5mm and it is suitable for cameras such as ASI 174, ASI 294, ASI 183, ASI 1600, ASI 533 and ASI 2600.

Without the 5mm extender the optical thickness of the adapter is reduced to 12.5mm and it is suitable for cameras such as ASI 120, ASI 224, ASI 290, ASI 178 and ASI 385.

The adapter is the combination of 2 parts:

  • The first has a female Canon bayonet adapter to a male M60 thread (optical thickness of 11.5mm)
  • A female M60 thread to male M42 thread (optical thickness of 14.5mm) with internal M48 thread for filters.
  • A M42 extension ring (female on one side, male on the other side) with an optical thickness of 5mm.

This adapter is suitable for Canon EOS EF lenses only.

To fine-tune the lens-sensor distance, the adapter include 4 round plastic shims with a thickness of 0.1mm, 0.2mm (x2) and 0.5mm.

Not for Pentax......But....

For the life of me, I couldn't find something like this in a Pentax K mount - plenty of adapters for adapting the PK camera to a T thread, but not a PK lens to astro cam. But, I did find an Urth Pentax K mount lens to Canon EF body adapter - which then fits this adapter so I can use my Pentax Lenses. There's a bit of fine tuning to be done - a Sigma 50mm Macro worked quite well without the 5mm spacer but with a Samyang 14mm, I had to add some thin spacers as the 14mm has a working distance of only a couple mm tolerance. Everything fits snugly and feels good quality. Add the fact that it has a thread for a 2" filter within the housing and you've got a very useful adapter.

Perfect

Shipped quickly as usual. Product very sturdy. Fitted a Samyang 10mm and achieved focus in the middle of the focuser range of motion. Very happy.
