[Rubber] Couple this adapter with the Vixen 2” flip-mirror for an ideal combo. Allows easy stable switching between eyepiece sizes and easy framing for your image.

[Rubber] It is working perfectly. No accurate polar alignment is required. Rough polar alignment through the peep hole is fine for focal length from 14mm - 105mm with 30” to 120” exposure. I feel it can push to 105mm and 180” exposure with no problem. 200mm focal length with 120” exposure is acceptable, no obvious star trailing is seen. But considering this is done with NO polar scope, I think it’s fantastic. 



It is so small that it fits into my camera bag easily. Use only 2 AA batteries. Look and feel good. 



Expensive but well worth it.

[200mm] I used the Vixen flip mirror with my Televue 85mm telescope and Canon digital camera to photograph the 21.08.2017 total eclipse from western Kentucky. The flip mirror fit securely in the 2 focuser on the telescope. The right angle port with the eyepiece tube removed accepted the T-ring for the Canon camera. This was especially helpful given the 62 degree elevation of the sun and made focusing through the camera viewfinder easy. In other photography situations an eyepiece can be used in either port with the camera in the other.

[Rubber] This is exactly what I needed--a simple, effective, and portable star tracker at a decent price. Yes, it fits in the bag nicely. The device is very well built.


No messing with WiFi connections in the dark and cold as my other tracker requires.


There are some trade-offs in terms of carrying capacity and longer exposures are difficult.


It is the right balance of attributes for me. Money well spent.

[Rubber] I have many astronomical telescopes and this one has become one of my favorites,! Powerful and very handy to use, easy to balance on the mount, and having crisp clear optics is an important plus! Very fine optics from Vixen in Japan. Awesome product!

[Rubber] Great for using two different eyepieces at the same time.

[Rubber] You need this adapter when using Vixen Flip mirror in order to use 2 eyepieces.

[Rubber] This plate REALLY IDEAL match with my Vixen Porta II mount and make possible mounting my OTA Sky Watcher 4.5' Neutonian. Together with Vixen Red Point Finder and Vixen Eyepieces it makes perfect system for visual observation - very simple, convenient, stable. In fact, I purchased completely new telescope for just$!

[Rubber] Received on time and in very good condition. Not tried yet, but looks very good and very light also. I love it.

[200mm] This is a great little unit up until I started using this flip mirror I was having a hard time taking photos with my universal set up this eliminates all of the vibrations in the telescope and allows me to really zoom into my target while the telescope slews .. great product....phil
