The Vixen Wide Photo Adapter 60DX is a heavy-duty, precision-engineered adapter designed for prime focus astrophotography with Canon EF-mount DSLR cameras. Built for use with 60mm-threaded telescope focusers, this adapter provides maximum light transmission, mechanical rigidity, and long-term alignment stability — everything an advanced astrophotographer needs to produce flawless, full-frame images.
Unlike standard T-rings, this adapter features a wider 52mm internal diameter, significantly reducing vignetting in full-frame astrophotography. Its brass camera interface ensures tight, reliable locking, while the thicker construction minimizes flex during long-exposure imaging. The Delrin-tipped alignment screws help keep your sensor perfectly squared to the optical path for crisply focused, distortion-free results.
Compatible with Vixen’s most advanced OTAs, including the SD81SII, SD103SII, SD115SII, AX103S, R200SS, and VSD100, this adapter fully integrates with M60-threaded drawtubes and supports use with Vixen’s reducers and correctors.
