Will This work on my Celestron C6? Will it allow me to move the camera to take vertical shots and lock it in?

yes it should, its universal to celestron telescopes..Im looking at mine now, and it seems to be universal, did you get your t-ring...the t-ring will allow the camera to be attached. I know I forgot the t-ring when I got my adaptor..My telescope is the C8, so it should work.. let me know, but get the t-ring, it goes by camera model.. Like mine is a Cannon, so I had to get a Cannon t-ring that attaches to the adapter...it also only works if your able to remove your leses from your camera, there is another mount that you can use if your using a point and shoot camera.. most sincerely,Lizzy

I am using this adapter on an old orange tube Celestron 90 and it works. As far as the lens goes I can not help you on that other than you just added a couple of inches to the focus tube. The larger aperture lens I have worked fine, the smaller ones have not. The same has held true for the brand. Celestron lens have worked better than my Meade ones. The last problem is the actual focusing of the scope, with some of the lens the focuser is at its limit and I can not go any further and I have an out of focus image. So the answer is that the adapter works, but there are limitations.

I can't answer your question, but I can add that I tried the Celestron against this model and returned the Celestron. The Celestron had some difficulty stabilizing the image. Also, the software bundled with the AM Scope camera is pretty good.

I think this one would be better. #93640 is more generic for any telescope with 1.25" accessories (you would mount it into the star diagonal or eyepiece holder. While this one screws on directly to the SCT. I used it on both the 8SE and the C9.25 so I'm not sure 100% it will work on the 6".

It is built for the APS-C sensor, rather than a full frame. In theory it will work, but your images would be cropped.

I've used it on mine and it works, but it was optimized for APS-C sensors, so the corners might get wonky. "The phoblographer" website also verifies this in their testing of the lens. I've noticed little to no vignetting on my photos though.

You will need an adapter but it is possible. http://www.celestron.com/browse-shop/sport-optics/accessories/binocular-tripod-adapter

I use the Celestron CGEM-DX mount. It is rated for 50 lbs. and has huge legs for max stability.When you start adding, camera DSLR, guidescope, cables, brackets, adapters, and heat strip the rating is essential.Balance and backlash knowledge comes with experience and patients for those tack sharp images this unit offers.There are other EQ mounts rated for 50lbs so look into those as well.

It should work. I put it on a Celestron 127EQ with minimal mounting space. It appears by photos I have seen of your model telescope that it should mount without a problem. You might want to consider buying a 4" Riser.

Don't know for sure. It rotates horizontally and goes up & down so if you can mount it on your tripod sideways, it should work. Why not buy it and try it. You can always return it, AND answer your own question.

I use it for the Celestron 52252 100mm Ultima Zoom Spotting Scope BUT it is rock solid! does not move and the controls are excellent

I am not an expert on the subject, but I would think is save to assume that it will work. The trigmaster is older than 6D, and really the way they connect to the camera is the same way as any cable remote. I hope this helps.

Yes, it will work. I use the 2x lens in my full size scope as well as in my Orion go-scope. As long as the celestron uses the same width lenses (which it appears it does) they should work fine. Mine works great in my travel scope.

I just did a quick Google search, which says your D3200 uses the same F-mount as my D50 and D100. Your Celestron Astromaster uses the same 1.25" eyepieces as mine. So, you need the same parts I did. You only need 2 things. The Celestron 93402 goes on your camera in place of the lens. It's the adapter you selected. You will also need a Celestron 93625 "T Adapter - 1 1/4" adapter. This screws into the T-ring adapter, and then you can put the camera on the telescope in place of the eye piece. The 93625 is just a fancy empty tube. The telescope is your lens now. A couple words of advice if you're doing space photography. Use something to stabilize your telescope. A tiny jiggle will turn a beautiful space picture into a blur, since you'll be using a fairly long exposure. Mine sways a little if there's a bit of wind. Here's a few I did back in 2010, of the moon, in an area with moderately heavy light pollution. http://www.flickr.com/photos/30239176@N08/sets/72157624021585233/ You should be able to find some free software to control your camera from your computer. Touching the shutter button make it jiggle. Even a remote shutter cable will too. The best results (not in this set), I locked the mirror up (either in the software, or in the camera's menu). I controlled the camera over USB. I was able to watch through the laptop for my shot to be "just right", and then trigger the "shutter", which at that point was just enabling and disabling the censor in the camera. There are a lot of sites about space photography. If you're doing space, or just long distance terrestrial, they'll still apply to you. They can give advice on what else you'll need (software, firming up your telescope, etc). The two Celestron pieces I mentioned above will get you started. Good luck with your photography!

I couldn't get this to work and sent it back. Haven't figured out how to get a camera to work with my Celestron Spotting Scope (yet). I do love the spotting scope though! Just get a good-enough tri-pod that will hold the scope up well. My tri-pod is relatively inexpensive and the weight of the scope is too much for the tri-pod.

I think it will hold it. I have a Celestron #52260 C90 Mac Spotting Scope and it holds it just fine. The C90 is heavier than the Ultima 80

Thanks EvanThat does make sense.I have also since found out this item is discontinued by Celestron and replaced by the avx mount. May hunt to buy one of those instead but imagine same applies.
