will work with NexStar 130 SLT Computerized Telescope? Will need any adaptor (or advised to have?) thanks

The Solar system Imager needs a 1.25 inch focusser. I'm using it with a Nextar 6SE telescope. The only other restriction would be if the focusser wouldn't let the device go deep enough to come to focus. I tried to use it with a homebuilt 10 inch Newtonian that I'm going to need to modify. That's not something you would want to do with the 130. Since yours is a Newtonian, it MAY have that problem.

I know I have a celestron 4se computerized and it worked beautifully. It's a little difficult for the settings to get color but once you do, you will be amazed.

This camera is equipped with a 1.25" barrel so that it will work in place of any 1.25" eyepiece. It will work with any telescope that accepts a 1.25" eyepiece, including the Nexstar130 SLT.

The NexStar 130 SLT uses a 2" eyepiece so you would need an adapter as the camera is made for 1.25" eyepiece. You will also need a Windows or Mac computer as well of course.

I do not own as 130 st but I assume it would. I use one on a SkyQuest ST8 and on a 90mm Apex Maksutov on a alt-azimuth mount and it does a wonderful job. It prevents a lot of neck pain, especially looking directly overhead. Also, on the 90mm apex, I use it to view open clusters. In many instances, the view thru this finder is better than thru the telescope because it's field-of-view is larger and brighter and magnification is not an issue.

Yeah, it'll work just fine. All of the Celestron, Orion, Astro-Tech, etc. scopes use the Vixen-style dovetail. Heck, a lot of those scopes come out of the same factories, and just get different brands stamped on them. And I know for a fact that this finder works with Celestron's NexStar 102 tube because I have both of them and have used them together. You're safe!

YES According to the Celestron web site this will work with your 114 LCM.

It will work just fine. You may want to invest in a quality eyepiece depending on what it comes with. I got the Celestron version and was mich happier when I put a plossl eyepiece in, but the Barlow fits any 1-1/4 inch

Someone more knowledgeable will hopefully chime in but this is one part of two that you need. You will also need the T-Ring for your camera; however, this may be everything you need including this adapter: Deluxe Telescope Camera Adapter Kit for Sony NEX "E"-Mount - 1.25" Variable Eyepiece Projection & Prime FocusPlease double check my answer though. Good luck and once you find the right set up it is awesome!!!

Yes, it should work. You will, of course, need the 1.25 lens adapter for the telescope: Celestron 93625 Universal 1.25-inch Camera T-Adapter

You will need a 1.5 inch visual back and a t-adapter for your camera. It will work with the Nextstar 4SE, however, you will need the Celestron 1.5 VB vs the NS VB they have with the SE.

It should work with any telescope that accepts 1.25" eyepieces. However, a diagonal such as this is almost always *included* with the telescope, so unless you lost yours, there's no need to buy one.

Kevin K. asks if the Celestron NexImage 5 MP "will [...] work on the Celestron Nexstar 130 GT". The answer is yes and no. On the one hand, the camera's machined aluminum 1.25" adapter barrel will fit almost any telescope. It will fit the Celestron Nexstar 130 GT without the additional expense of a particular adapter. Other the other hand, the camera gives its best results on a fully-guided scope. While the Celestron Nexstar 130 GT can slew to an object it does not have the fine tracking abilities of the CGEM DX or CGEM pro mounts. So while the camera will fit and while it will produce images, its use on the Celestron Nexstar 130 GT will preclude long exposures. In other words, with the Celestron Nexstar 130 GT, the camera would be best used for astrophotography of the moon, of the big planets (Saturn, Jupiter, Mars, Venus), of the occasional bright comet and of the sun WITH THE APPROPRIATE SOLAR FILTER. It will be difficult to image faint objects on the Celestron Nexstar 130 GT, not because of the OTA but because of the mount.

No it will not work as your scope is a Mak-Cass type of scope... You have a cover plate on the front glass aperture, your collimation is corrected using the screws located under the corrector plate. You have to do a slightly off focus star adjustment, the star should look like a concentric set of rings within each other when collimated properly.http://uncle-rods.blogspot.com/2009/07/zen-and-art-of-telescope-collimation.html

You didn't mention the model of your telescope. Mine was computerized and it worked for it.

Depends what you need the adapter to do. I have a Celestron Nextstar 5SE telescope and got the 93633-A to attach where the eyepiece of the telescope attaches to then attach the T-ring for my Nikon camera, which you have to purchase as well, to attach my camera to the 93633-A adapter.

They should work fine. Theses accessories are for any telescope that uses 1.25 inch diagonals or eyepieces. I've used them on an 8SE and my current Nexstar 11 GPS without issue. The eyepieces aren't of the highest quality but will do for general viewing.

I have a Meade ETX70 with Autostar. I find the included alignment system to be too time consuming. The SkyScout does a pretty decent job in locating my objects of interest. I then point the telescope to that area and fine tune the location until I have it centered. For the price I find it to be a worthwhile investment.

The mount that shows in the picture is for SCTs like the SE, CPC, or Edge HD series of scopes. When I bought mine, there was a smaller mount included for smaller scopes along with the mount shown. I would refer to the Celestron.com website for more info if you aren't sure.

It will fit the telescope but not your camera . the adapter only works with SLR cameras (I.e. ones with exchangeable lenses)
