Explore Scientific Dovetail Plate for Camera - DSLRCDA

The Explore Scientific Camera Dovetail Plate simplifies camera attachment to standard astronomical tripods with Vixen-style saddle plates.

Featuring three slots for camera mounting, the device comes with a standard ¼-20 bolt and a 3/8-16 adapter for European standards.

To switch between them, unscrew the adapter, ensuring safekeeping.

Equipped with a spring-loaded pin for certain cameras, it facilitates secure mounting.

To reposition the ¼-20 bolt, remove the 3/8-16 adapter, slide the bolt to the wider slot end, and unscrew using the swivel handle.

Transfer to the desired slot and screw it in.

For the spring-loaded pin, use a 4 mm Allen wrench to unscrew the set screw, carefully remove the spring and pin, then reposition in the chosen hole.

Align the pin, ensuring the thin side faces down and the silver tip protrudes. Insert the spring, then secure with the set screw, avoiding overtightening.

To install a camera, align the ¼-20 screw with the mounting hole, tighten the bolt, and adjust as needed. For added pressure, tighten the spring-loaded pin.

Elevate your astrophotography setup with the versatile and user-friendly Explore Scientific Camera Dovetail Plate.
