Dovetail L-Bracket for the Sky-Watcher Star Adventurer mount.
Allows you to mount a camera or telescope with a 1/4" thread screw to the Star Adventurer. Allows pointing and fine-tuning in two directions.
I received the bracket in good time. The bracket looks very well made,I was a toolmaker and could see it was made from quality materials. Haven't had a chance to use it yet due to UK weather but it looks like it will do exactly what I want.
Very tight fit on the NexStar but it forms a stable connection. Seems well made. I reversed the direction of the camera attachment for better balance on the mount. I added a small ball-head for greater flexibility but my DSLR catches on the NexStar mount in landscape mode - just means it has to be at a bit of an angle (which is easily corrected in post-processing).One minor criticism - the description doesn't explain what the black knob does - it looks like it allows the camera attachment to slide along the slot, but that isn't the case.
As normal a great service by you and your staff.
Best priced on the market (as always beware of p&p charges). Item not available in original colour (red) but who's gonna tell in the dark. Existing counterweight rod screwed straight in it. Now, we are ready for small instruments to be mounted.
