This review is from: Celestron T-Ring / T-Mount Adapter f/Nikon (Electronics)

This item works excellently with the Celestron T-adapter, and even a cheap telescope. However, there's something that all Nikon DSLR owners should know:

I used this on my D200, and it was WAY tighter than I was comfortable with. Lenses/adapters are not supposed to be this tight. I was terrified, putting it on. I almost chickened out.

Also, this doesn't have the stops that the lenses do - this item will spin in the camera's lens bezel, until it can come out again at the next 1/6th turn.

It didn't damage the camera, but it sure felt like it had the potential. Otherwise, it allowed me to take some great pictures, quickly, with little learning curve, and a cheap telescope with a 1.25" eyepiece.

I like to perform a functions check on everything I buy right away just in case there is a need to return it right away. This one looked easy. Slip it on like a lens and screw onto the T-adapter. When I went for it, the T-ring grabbed the camera like a vice. I then screwed on the T-adapter and attached the whole contraption to the telescope. It certainly felt secure, so I have no apprehensions about using this setup with my camera. It was when I attempted to take off the ring that I found myself struggling a bit and even heard a somewhat unpleasant noise when the ring finally slipped off. I thought I'd damaged the camera, but a quick test with a lens confirmed that all was fine. Not content to leave it there, I practiced a few more times and now feel comfortable hanging on to this item.

I was a little worried about an adapter for Nikon because there have been several different Nikon mounts over the years. I own several cameras - digital and film - so I was relieved that this adapter works in most of them. I can verify that it works for N80s, N90s, D80s and D90s. The downside is that I really don't expect it to last as long as my cameras have.
