Nikon Coolpix 4500 / Camera adaptors

I regularly get e-mails from people that want to know more about the digital camera set-up I use. Today I have published an article in my equipment section about the two cameras’ I use(d) , the Nikon Coolpix 4500 and the Nikon Coolpix 775. In the article you will find a photo album containing 16 images in which you can see how the Nikon Coolpix 4500 is connected to the telescope, using digital camera adaptors from Vixen and ScopeTronix. You will also find some links to some images and the digital_astro yahoo group.

Follow this link to read the full article.

Enjoy!

Binocular astronomy using the Sky Window

I love to observe the night sky with binoculars. I use a 7x50 Bresser and a 15x80 Vixen together with the Sky Window, a binocular mirror mount. If you want to know why I like binocular observing, especially in combination with a binocular mirror mount, just go to Sky Window and Binoculars page. It has has been completely rewritten. A lot of images and useful links have been added as well. Enjoy!

Nikon Coolpix 4500

I just received my new digital camera, the Nikon Coolpix 4500. The eyepiece adaptors from Scopetronix (for the Televue Plossl 32mm) and Vixen (for all the 1.25 Lanthanums, except the 40mm) fit perfectly into the 28mm female lens thread on the inner side of the lens tube.
