Performance & Features

Okay, this may be hard to wrap your head around because it's so simple: this adapter has a T-mount on one end to screw your astro camera into and a Canon EF mount on the other end to attach a Canon EF or EF-S lens. In the middle is a micro-USB port that provides power and data. Once you have it connected, it shows up as an ASCOM or INI focuser and your software can control the very accurate Canon auto-focus mechanics and aperture with insanely good precision.
