Omegon T2-Ring Nikon photo adapter
Want to use your Nikon camera for astrophotography or telescope photography? The Omegon T2-Ring Nikon is exactly the part you need. This seemingly simple but absolutely essential adapter creates a solid and precise connection between your Nikon camera body - equipped with the F-mount bayonet - and the standard T2 thread used across a wide range of photo adapters, telescopes, and other optical accessories.
All-metal construction for reliable performance
The Omegon T2-Ring for Nikon is made entirely from metal, which ensures long service life, mechanical stability, and minimal play in the mount - qualities that are critical in astrophotography. The metal design eliminates the risk of bending or deformation during long exposures, when the camera bayonet is under constant mechanical stress from a telescope or adapter assembly. Precise machining guarantees a secure and firm fit with no unwanted movement that could negatively affect image sharpness.
Compatibility with Nikon F-mount cameras
The adapter is designed for cameras with a Nikon F bayonet mount, which is the standard across the entire range of Nikon digital SLR cameras. It is specifically compatible with the following models:
- Nikon D1
- Nikon D40
- Nikon D50
- Nikon D70
- Nikon D70s
- Nikon D80
- Nikon D90
- Nikon D200
- All other Nikon cameras equipped with the Nikon F bayonet mount
This covers virtually the entire Nikon DX and FX family of digital SLRs.
How the T2-Ring works
The T2-Ring attaches directly to the camera bayonet in the same way as a lens. On the other side of the adapter, there is a standard T2 thread (M42x0.75), onto which you screw the appropriate photo adapter for your telescope or other optical device. Thanks to this universal solution, you can easily connect one DSLR to various optical instruments equipped with a T2 thread - you only need one T2-Ring and any number of different photo adapters.
Ideal for prime focus telescope photography
The adapter is ideal for prime focus telescope photography, where the camera is attached directly in place of the eyepiece. This method is especially popular for photographing the Moon, planets, or for deep-sky astrophotography with shorter telescope focal lengths.
