What is the best way to go about mounting a Nikon 4500 to a LX200? Scopetronix sells a few different methods, Orion has a few also. Thanks!

Anthony,

Go to the Yahoo Group digital_astro and check out what others who have the 4500 and 995(same mounting style)use.

I know there is at least one off-the-shelf setup for these cameras.

I use the Scopetronix adapter with my 4500. Specifically the version with the three long setscrews that will accomodate the 1.25" eyepieces. They also make one for the larger Televues and 2" eyepieces. Televue also makes one that fits their eyepieces and the 4500 and it may even be a little cheaper.
