Sony Nex Mirrorless Adapter for RASA 8

This machined aluminium adapter connects a Sony Nex mirrorless camera directly to the Celestron 8" Rowe-Ackermann Schmidt Astrograph. It positions the sensor at the correct backfocus distance for pinpoint stars across the full field of view. The bayonet mount provides a secure, non-rotating connection.

Replaces multi-part adapter stacks

A single unit eliminates the need for separate spacers or T-ring combinations when mounting a Sony Nex body on the RASA 8. The jump is worth it when you want a rigid, factory-calibrated backfocus that prevents tilt and vignetting without trial-and-error shimming.

Suits Sony Nex owners imaging with the 8" RASA

Astrophotographers using other camera systems or different telescope models cannot use this adapter. Buyers who need a universal T-thread interface or a different backfocus length for another optical system should look elsewhere.
