An adapter that does the job, and does it well
(4 out of 5) by Joseph B. Angelo on Sep 3, 2009There are enough reviews here to let people know you need this AND some sort of adapter for your camera to make this work.
The adapter itself is pretty well made. It is a simple metal ring. It has the correct threading on the inside of the ring and the outside. This is not some cheap plastic thing that will snap between your fingers. The price tag seems a bit high for a little metal ring. But it is a very specialized piece of equipment, your almost certainly not going to be using this for anything else.
Pros:
*Well constructed, not flimsy feeling
*Made out of metal, not cheap plastic
*Does what is made to do
Cons:
*Expensive for such a small item

Great product
(5 out of 5) by Patricia Brouillette on Jun 26, 2009 (Fort Drum, NY United States)As a photographer who has always enjoyed looking up at the stars, I love the fact that there is a way to attach my camera to the telescope. It works really well.
It is very easy to attach. My suggestion would be to make sure you have a remote switch, just to help reduce the movement of the camera, since of course it will be longer exposures. Also, just make sure that the telescope is secure on the tripod and the tripod is balanced. Just anything to help reduce any movement while the camera is taking the picture.

Not for my camera
(3 out of 5) by S. Goshop on Feb 15, 2009I talked with a Meade representative and he assured me for my camera make and model, that it would fit. However it was WAY too small.
If you have a dSLR or SLR that is 35mm, it will most likely fit. Unless you have a threaded lens or lens mount, you will need an additional adapter.

A warning...
(5 out of 5) by D. Freeman on Aug 4, 2008 (Reno, NV)Be aware.. the 64ST T-Adapter is for the Meade ETX70 ONLY. If you need one for any of the other models, you want the Meade #64 T Adapter.

Meade 64ST T Adapter
(5 out of 5) by Patrick Jacobs on May 2, 2008 The Meade 64ST Adapter must be accopanied with a T Mount for your brand of camera. This piece completed the set for my telescope-to-camera perfectly!
