He has an adapter that fits on the camera in place of the lens and then attaches to the scope in place of the eyepiece. While his equipment is specialized, you would be extremely surprised the amazing images that people take using a I-phone looking through the eye piece. :) However, if you're wanting to get into Astrophotography, feel free to email him at warpfactorx@gmail.com and he would be happy to answer anything you might want to know. Also, the facebook group "Night Skies Network" is a great place to learn as well :) <br /><br />Thanks for stopping by :) and I hope this helps.

I'm curious, though: Did you take the picture through the telescope? How so? Now you've got me wondering how I can take pictures like that!Timhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02048528536046488226noreply@blogger.com
