The ZWO Adapter for Sony DSLR Lenses (M42) enables the use of manual Sony DSLR and E-mount lenses with ZWO cameras with small sensor formats, such as the ASI1600, ASI294, ASI183, ASI174, ASI432, and ASI585. The adapter connects via standard M42 thread and ensures a reliable and light-tight connection.
With a backfocus of 34 mm, this adapter is suitable for situations where precise distance setting is essential, such as wide-angle shots or all-sky astrophotography. Only manual lenses are supported. Autofocus lenses or electronically controlled models are not compatible.
Sony E-mount lenses with a backfocus of 18.5 mm can also be used, provided they are fully manual. This makes this accessory particularly flexible for astrophotographers who want to use their existing Sony lenses with their ZWO setups.
