Smartphone Camera Adapters

Best for using your smartphone to capture images of the night sky

Ever tried to take a photo of the moon or the planets by holding up your phone camera to a telescope eyepiece? If so, you know how hard it is to hold the camera steady enough to get a good picture. Smartphone camera adapters hold your phone steady by attaching directly to your telescope’s eyepiece.

Then, you can center your smartphone’s camera over the eyepiece and take that shot of the moon’s craters you’ve always wanted to get. Some of the best smartphone adapters allow you to move the adapter in 3 axes: left & right (X), up & down (Y), and in & out (Z). We recommend getting one of these types of smartphone adapters as they’ll be able to hold your phone rock steady.
