Another Scope Camera adapter DYI

[3DEER]

Guys these are the components I used to make my adapter for the Swarovski spotter. A little more than $3..

Step 1 - Canon SD1400 IS or whatever camera you plan to use. I think it helps to have the flat surface

Step 2 - I used Loctite epoxy gel to attach ring to the camera http://www.ebay.com/itm/46mm-58mm-4...t=US_Filter_Rings_Holders&hash=item3efb6b5c35


Step 3 - Take photo tube apart and reverse the 2 parts and epoxy them together. This is so the ring from step 2 hookups with the photo tube .http://www.ebay.com/itm/330454646041?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649

Step 4 - Take the photo tube and apply tool dip. This will help secure it to the scope and also looks nice and finished. You might need to apply more than once for the right fit http://www.homedepot.com/h_d1/N-5yc...0053&langId=-1&keyword=tool+dip&storeId=10051

With a few tweaks with the different sizes of camera rings and adapters you could get a combo for any eyepiece.
