I am looking for a T ring with an af chip to use with this product. What is the diameter of the camera end? Will it fit a T ring made for M42 lenses?

M42 is aka Pentax thread mount which I have as well because I have done astrophotography for 50 years.

I use a t3, if I remember they are about the same size and mine works great! I love it. The carry case isn't particularly sturdy but you can re enforce stitch it and it will be fine. Just be careful with the longer/heavier lenses.

The one I bought was specific for the Nikon 70-200 F4. I would think the odds of it fitting another lens extremely remote. I can't say for sure but I would not take the chance. I had the Tamron lens and didn't think it was long enough to require the mount, but that is my opinion only. As an example, I have a ring I bought for a Canon 70-200 F4 several years ago and I hoped it would fit the Nikon. No such luck. They make a lot of money selling these after market items and I am fairly sure they want as little lens to lens compatibility as possible.

The T-adapter is more or less universal to the telescope with the right eye piece diameter. You need the correct adapter ring to fit the camera to the T-adapter.

I have several Canons and they all mount fine. You simply remove the eye shade from the scopes eyepiece, thread a small ring onto the eyepiece, then thread your T-ring and finally your camera to the T-ring. Now you have a very large lens mounted to your camera. Just remember to purchase a T-ring compatible with your specific model camera. Different sensor sizes requires deeper T-rings to avoid vignetting. T-rings don't cost much, I've seen quality name brand models as low as $16. BTW, mirrorless cameras also work great with these scopes. Good luck!

Yeah the t-mount should work ok. This lens has no electronic capabilities with it though so you wont have anything like AF, its all gonna be manual. In fact the camera will not take good photos with it in auto mode, you need to use manual and adjust for white balance on your own.... focus is touchy, to me its hard to get a good focus but play with it and you can make it work. For the money its about all one could ask for really.

where did you get the 129 mm from ? For the fit of the lens set please find out the diameter of the thread that is at the end of your cameras objective, Linda

I just bought an adapter ring that accepts 67mm filters. So far, so good. I can't believe that Nikon offers NO support for this. I tried the 'tube' adapter and it really didn't work for me at all. I zoom in and out all the time and with the tube on you can't do that. I will say that the adapter ring that I bought was REALLY loose at first and I didn't think it would work out. It seems to have seated itself to my camera no and stays on quite nicely.

Daniel,I see the AF100 is a 4/3 video camera, and I can only assume the 14-45mm mount will interface with the camera. Keep in mind this lens is a manual zoom with stabilization. Do you really want to be turning the zoom ring while using the camera? I think you need to do a little more research on video forums with those that use the AF100 to get a informed answer. J Bush

The ring that is permanently attached to the end of the lens housing has an inside diameter of 28mm and an outer diameter of 32mm. It's only about 0.5mm thick and the same black finish as the housing, so it is unnoticeable. It's been a wonderful addition to my Canon S95. Joel

Actually it's good for any type of cam or any lens size, you can check the back of your lens cap you will find a number that's the ring size you should mount it to your lens. for instance (18-55) is (58mm) so you will mount the 58mm ring. then attach the filter holder and it's ready ;) .for more help don't hesitate to email me: HassanFahmy@Hotmail.com

There is an adapter, LEE Filters Adapter Ring for Canon 17mm TS-E Lens, that B&H; carries. I haven't used it, but it most likely obstructs some of the image. BTW, I've been using this lens for landscape work recently and am quite impressed with it.

As long as you Canon fits any of the interchangeable Canon lenses, the T-Ring will work. But if you are planning on using it with a telescope, you still need the 1.25 inch T-ring lens adapter that the ring fits on to.

Search Amazon for T-Ring or T-mount adapter. Have a search on Google too. You have to buy one for specifically for the Minolta/Sony mount. I think Celestron do them themselves too.

The t-ring will only work on cameras that do not have a fixed lens. Which I believe that the cool pix l830 has.

Hello - I bought this adapter thinking it would fit those lenses - and it didn't. I have both the 50mm f/1.8 and the 28 mm f/2.8 - both didn't fit b/c there's a metal stub at the bottom that does not allow it to mount on the adapter. The only lens I had that fit was the 75-150mm lens.I wouldn't buy it.

Not a crazy question as there is a lot of confusion out there between "M42" and "T2". When someone says "M42" they typically mean 42mm 1.0 pitch (the old Pentax Screw Mount). When someone says T2 they typically mean 42mm .75 pitch. Many sellers don't even know the difference and interchange the two terms. This item is 42mm .75 pitch.
