This off-axis guider from ASKAR convinces with a versatile adaptation for almost all telescopes and cameras - usable up to full frame format.

•  Connections at the telescope side: M54x0.75, M48x0.75 and T2 (M42x0.75) female thread
•  Connections at the camera side: M54x0.75, M48x0.75 and T2 (M42x0.75) male thread
•  Three orientations of the camera to the off-axis guider are possible
•  The optically effective length of the OAG is 19.5 mm, the external thread on the camera side does not count.
