Camera Lenses & Adapters

A camera lens is often the best first imaging optic. A good 135 mm or 200 mm lens frames the largest nebulae and Milky Way fields, needs very light tracking and teaches all the basics of astrophotography. With the right adapter, you can put Canon EF or Nikon F lenses on a dedicated astronomy camera or filter wheel and keep using them for years.

This collection includes all-sky fisheye lenses for meteor and aurora cameras, CS-mount lenses, astro lenses such as the Askar FMA135 and SVBONY SV535, and adapters from ZWO, QHYCCD, Player One, SBIG, SVBONY and Baader.

Common Uses

  • Wide-field deep-sky: Canon or Nikon lenses on a cooled camera via an adapter with the correct back-focus.
  • All-sky cameras: A short focal length CS lens on a small camera to watch the whole sky for meteors, aurora and clouds.
  • Guiding: A small lens can work as a light guide scope.
  • Filters with lenses: Some adapters include a filter drawer so you can use 2-inch or 1.25-inch filters behind the lens.

Getting Sharp Stars from a Lens

Stop down a fast photo lens by one or two stops for rounder stars at the edges. Use manual focus with a Bahtinov mask and lock the focus ring with tape so it cannot move as the night cools.

Camera Lenses and Adapters: Frequently Asked Questions

Which adapter do I need for my lens?

It depends on the lens mount and the camera or filter wheel's thread and back-focus. Send us both and we will confirm.

Can I use autofocus lenses?

Yes, in manual focus mode. Canon EF lenses need power to change aperture, so set it on a camera body first or use an adapter that controls it.

Putting a lens on your astro camera?

Send us your lens and camera models. We will name the adapter and the spacing.
