  • C-to-1.25" Adapter

    This adapter provides the essential mechanical link for using any camera with C-mount threads in a standard 1.25" telescope focuser, diagonal, or accessory port. It functions as a simple nosepiece, allowing you to mount guide cameras, planetary imagers, or industrial cameras on your astronomical setup securely. The barrel is threaded for standard 1.25" filters, letting you add a UV/IR cut, light pollution, or color filter directly into the imaging train.

    Durable Construction with Stray Light Control

    Machined from black anodized aluminum, this adapter is built for durability and a secure fit. To maximize image contrast, the interior of the barrel is threaded. This design feature acts as a light baffle, trapping stray light that could otherwise cause reflections and lower the quality of your images.

  • What is the C-to-1.25" Adapter used for?

    The C-to-1.25" Adapter is used to connect a camera that has male C-mount threads to a telescope's focuser, diagonal, or other accessory that accepts a 1.25" barrel. It effectively turns the C-mount camera into a device that can be used like a standard 1.25" eyepiece.

    Can I attach my C-mount guide camera to an off-axis guider's 1.25" port with this adapter?

    Yes. This adapter serves as a nosepiece that will slide into any standard 1.25" port, including those found on many off-axis guiders, filter wheels, and flip mirrors, allowing you to use your C-mount camera for autoguiding or planetary imaging through those accessories.

    How does the internal baffling on the C-to-1.25" Adapter help when imaging near bright objects?

    The internal threads act as light baffles, which are crucial for maintaining high contrast. When imaging near a bright star or the limb of the Moon, stray light can enter the optical path and reflect off smooth interior surfaces. The baffling in this adapter traps that light, preventing it from reaching the camera sensor and washing out faint details in your target.
