Take beautiful astrophotos through any telescope with your iPhone! With the
Orion SteadyPix Telescope Photo Adapter for iPhone, anyone with a telescope
and an iPhone can easily take stunning pictures of the night sky.
The SteadyPix iPhone Photo Adapter securely couples an iPhone 4S, 4, 3GS, 3G,
or original iPhone to a 1.25” telescope eyepiece so you can take high-magnification
pictures through the telescope using the iPhone’s built-in camera. The
sturdy, steel adapter bracket allows the iPhone’s camera lens to be positioned
directly over the 1.25” telescope eyepiece eye lens for afocal eyepiece-projection
photography. Since the iPhone camera is positioned right where your eye would
be, it’s easy for anyone to start taking pictures of night sky wonders,
no matter how experienced or inexperienced you are in the hobby of astrophotography.
At night, capture high-resolution images of the Moon’s cratered surface
and take astrophotographic snapshots of bright and interesting planets like
ringed Saturn and gigantic Jupiter. With practice and a bit of patience, you
can even capture images of some bright deep-space objects and the International
Space Station (really)!
The fun doesn’t stop at sunrise either. Use the SteadyPix iPhone adapter
during daylight hours with a refractor or Cassegrain telescope to take superb
high-magnification snapshots of distant wildlife and scenery. With a properly
sized solar filter attached to any telescope, you can take daytime snapshots
of broiling sunspots on our nearest star with your iPhone.
Another great feature of the Orion SteadyPix Telescope Photo Adapter is how
it lets you display a live view of the image projected by your telescope on
your iPhone screen. Now you can share beautiful real-time views of the night
sky with friends and family by using your iPhone as a mini telescope display
monitor! No more lining up to wait for your chance to view, everyone can observe
at the same time when using an attached iPhone as a cool mini display screen.
The SteadyPix iPhone Photo Adapter can also attach your iPhone to a photo tripod
for steady wide-field pictures without a telescope.
The Orion SteadyPix Telescope Phot Adapter for iPhone includes a felt-lined
steel eyepiece clamp that fits standard 1.25” telescope eyepieces with
housing diameters up to 1.5”. A larger clamp for bigger eyepiece housings
is sold separately (see suggested accessories).
