I am looking to piggy back mount a Minolta x700 35mm SLR with an 80-200mm zoom lens to a Celestron 9.25" SCT telescope. I am looking for suggestions on what type of equipment to use to make this possible (i.e. rail mounts, brackets, etc.). Any info would be greatly appreciated. smile

Losmandy (a sponsor) has a dovetail plate that mounts to the top of the C9.25 to which you can mount camera mounts or rings, also available from Losmandy. I drilled and tapped holes in my dovetail plate for cleanly (without sticky tape) mounting my Telrad.
