The Explore Scientific T2 ring for Canon DSLR is the adapter that connects your Canon camera body to a telescope for astrophotography. This T-ring replaces your camera lens with a standard T2 (M42 x 0.75) thread, letting you attach the camera to a telescope's focuser or T2 accessories for prime-focus imaging. Its slim 1.5mm light-path design keeps the camera as close to the optics as possible for correct focus and spacing.

A T-ring is camera-brand specific on one side and universal T2 on the other, so it's the essential bridge between your Canon body and the wider world of astronomy imaging gear.

Who it's for

For astrophotographers with a Canon DSLR who need to mount their camera to a telescope or T2 accessory. New to astro imaging? See our astronomy 101 stargazing basics guide.
