For attaching a DSLR camera to Sky-Watcher 0.85x Focal Reducers, Esprit Flatteners and other accessories with a M48 Male thread.
If you are trying to achieve a 55mm back focus you may need to use additional extensions for some of these adapters.

When I attach this to my cc it comes loose, and when I tried tightening the thread it broke the grub scews rendering it useless.
Response:
The grub screws are used to tighten the two parts together. It should not be possible to break a grub screw so please get in touch, and we will replace this.

As a new person starting out doing astrophotography, I was little confused about T rings and m48 and m42. So Asked about this and saw a T ring, and ask would this fit my camera to my telescope, he said yes. So I ordered one from FLO and came by post. And it fits nicely on my camera to my telescope. Thanks for a great service, will be using FLO again.

As a relative newcomer to all this malarkey, I am somewhat perplexed at the fact that I now own 4 different adapters for my either my DSLR or camera lenses. They're great, don't get me wrong, but I never realised when I signed up, that M48 and M42 doodads of varying dimensions would be such a prevalent thing in my life. Shopping with FLO is always a delight and such an educational experience as well! Happy days

Used this m48 adaptor to connect redcat51 to canon dslr eos200d. Correct backfocus acheived. Seems like a nice piece of kit. Sturdy.

Received along with a Sharpstar 61 EDPH and reducer/flattener. The first times I used the setup, I had severe tilt in my images. Upon googling, I found that it was a common occurrance with the reducer/flattener which has a built-in rotator with 3 adjustment screws. I loosened, turned and made sure that they were all tightened with the equal amount of pressure, but the tilt was still present. Today on a whim, just for the sake of testing, I switched the Astro Essential M48 ring with the M48 from Sky-Watcher I have mounted on my Sky-Watcher 80ED, and the tilt completely disappeared. Get a proper Adapter, not this one. I've already ordered a replacement.

Hi Tommy,
We are baffled and perplexed.
This product normally recieves excellent reviews and is, at least, equivalent to many more expensive brands.
We can only assume yours is faulty.
Please email us to arrange return and refund.
I wish i'd known that this was already included... 14 November 2022 | Graham
I wasn't aware that this adapter was included with the scope I ordered - would've been nice for FLO to follow up with an "are you sure" email to be sure I really needed it - after all why would someone order a second one when you can only have one camera connected to the scope at a time...

Using one on the Stellamira 90mm Triplet with the Stellamira 2" 0.8 Reducer and a modded Canon 600D. Does what it supposed to do, not much to say really. I would knock it down half a star as there's a little play between the camera and it but it's not effected my images in anyway.

I bought this to use with my sky-watcher evostar ed72 telescope. It fits perfectly and works well. Quick delivery
