How your astrophotography can be helped with a finder
You are looking for your object using your camera viewfinder. Is it there? Is it in the middle of the viewfinder?
For astrophotography, that alone is often a challenge. Why can’t it be made easier and have this obstacle to a perfect astrophoto removed? We now have a really elegant solution: with the hot shoe adapter. Simply mount your LED finder on your camera and you’ll find your object in an instant.
HOW TO MOUNT AN LED FINDER ON YOUR CAMERA WITH THE HOTSHOE:
You can mount an LED finder on your camera using the hotshoe. You’ll have your object in your field of view in no time.
Slide the adapter onto your camera's hotshoe
Attach with the Allen key provided
Which finders will fit on the adapter?
You'll have a stable connection: your camera, the hot shoe adapter and the LED finder. If your finder has a Picatinny or Weaver system then it will fit on the adapter. What kind of system is that? Simply explained: originating in the firearms sector, these standardised rails are 11mm and 20mm wide. For some time they have also been used for astronomical LED finders.
The advantages at a glance:
- This fits your LED finder to the hot shoe of a SLR camera
- Find every object immediately; makes astrophotography quicker and easier
- No more mystery, just certainty that the camera is directed at the object
- Suitable for LED finders with Picatinny and Weaver rails

fit nicely and secure to the small rig set up as seen. It can fit nicely and tightly on camera hotshoe too Tried many other plates to mount the dot sight to camera Hotshoe but all will "moved" or have clearance that make the dot sight useless. This is it and the perfect fit!

1: a lot of dosh for a simple machined lump, tiny tiny lump, of ali2: I could live this if it was a snug fit - it isn't - far too loose to be any use3: the lock down screw was missing - got the allen key but no bl.....y screw to tighten with it !So utterly useless as delivered.Sorry but if you want to charge 18 squid for such a tiny bit of metal i would make it the right size and supply all the requisites.

Poor design, not a stable mount for aiming device

Really locks on to the hot shoe on the top of the camera. Perfect fit and very secure. I used it to mount a holographic red dot sight to the camera and needed to add a picatinny rail on top of this device to allow for the somewhat large size of an EOTech sight.
