Meade #777 Off-Axis Guider 07054 provides a means, during long-exposure astrophotography, for the photographer to monitor the tracking of the telescope, to assure that the telescope remains precisely positioned on the object being photographed.

Meade Off-Axis Guider # 777 is similar in function to #62 Meade T-Adapter in that it couples the camera body to the telescope for prime focus photography, but with an important difference: a small part of the light at the edge of the telescopic field is diverted at a 90° angle to the unit, where it is observed on the crosslines of an illuminated reticle eyepiece to detect any change of position. # 777 Off-Axis Meade Guider has been used in this way countless times to obtain very high quality long-exposure photographs of deep-space objects.

The guider unit threads to the rear cell of all Meade LX-Series mirror-lens telescopes and to other brands of Schmidt-Cassegrain telescopes.

Use with the appropriate T-Mount, ordered separately, for your camera brand. Will also require a 1.25 Inch format illuminated reticle eyepiece. Meade offers T-Rings for most models of 35mm cameras.

To attach to your camera to your #777 Off-Axis Meade Guider you will need the appropriate T-Mount for your camera.
