SVBONY SV167 SCT Prime Focus Camera Adapter (2″-24 to M42)

Product Overview

The SVBONY SV167 is a prime-focus camera adapter for Schmidt-Cassegrain telescopes. It threads onto the 2″-24 TPI rear thread of an SCT and ends in an M42 x 0.75 male thread, so a camera fitted with a T-ring mounts directly at the telescope's focal plane. The adapter is 50 mm long overall and includes a 30 mm M42 extension; it is CNC-machined aviation-grade aluminium with a blackened, matted interior to suppress stray light, and weighs 50 g.

Who It's For

This is a good match if you own an SCT with the standard 2″-24 rear thread, such as a C5, C8, C9.25, C11 or C14, and want to attach a DSLR, mirrorless or astronomy camera at prime focus for lunar, planetary or deep-sky imaging.

Key Features & Design

• SCT 2″-24 TPI to M42 x 0.75: the standard SCT-to-T-ring connection.
• 30 mm M42 extension: provides spacing behind the rear cell for photography.
• 50 mm overall length.
• Aviation-grade aluminium, CNC machined: rigid and stable for imaging.
• Blackened, matted interior: suppresses stray-light reflections.

Recommended Uses

• Prime-focus imaging of the Moon, planets and brighter deep-sky objects through an SCT.
• DSLR and mirrorless astrophotography with a matching T-ring.

Compatibility and Accessory Notes

• Telescope side: SCT 2″-24 TPI, compatible with Celestron C5, C8, C9.25, C11 and C14 and other SCTs with that thread.
• Camera side: M42 x 0.75 male, for a T-ring matched to your camera body (sold separately).
• Other adapters: SVBONY notes it can also be combined with its W1077A and W2054A camera adapters.

Good to Know Before You Order

• T-ring needed: a camera-specific T-ring completes the connection.
• SCT rear thread: the adapter threads onto the SCT rear cell, so it suits telescopes with the 2″-24 thread. If your telescope has a different rear connection, send us the model and we will find the right adapter.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it difficult to set up?

No. Remove the visual back from the SCT, thread the SV167 onto the rear cell, then attach your camera with its T-ring.

Which telescopes does it fit?

SCTs with the 2″-24 TPI rear thread, including the Celestron C5, C8, C9.25, C11 and C14.

Does it include a T-ring?

No. The T-ring is specific to your camera brand and is bought separately.

Bottom Line

In short: a 50 g aluminium SCT-to-M42 adapter with a 30 mm extension that puts a T-ringed camera at the prime focus of a 2″-24 SCT.
