Celestron NexYZ DX Smartphone Adapter for Telescope with Bluetooth Remote

The xyz celestron phone adaptor is quality built. Was able to mount securely both an iPhone 7 and se on the adopter with no problem with their protective cases on. The three adjustments in xyz allowed easy alignment to my eyepiece. Personally, I found it best to connect eyepiece on adapter before inserting into telescope and then fine adjustment for final alignment and focus. Over all a well engineered piece of equipment. The remote Bluetooth camera button linked with no problem, just hold down remote button for 5 seconds to connect. More expensive than competition, but worth it for a well engineered xyz adapter.

This is a truly universal adapter and it is generally well designed. However the vertical gear plate is made of plastic and the plastic carriage that rides on it are a bit loose. There isn't any easy way to tighten it up. The flexation will cause the phone to be slightly canted in relation to the eyepiece, introducing light (daytime use) and making it slightly more difficult obtain focus. For the premium price, I would expect no issues but there are some less than perfect materials and somewhat sloppy function. Still one of the best out there for it's adaptability.

Este producto es genial, cubre todos los ejes. Latitud, longitud y elevación en cuanto al centrado del celular en el ocular del aparato a observar. Me gustó mucho. Super recomendado

Bluetooth shutter arrived with fully dead battery CR2032,... changed it and quickly discovered likely reason,.. it has no power OFF button, and to remove battery you must carry around a fine point Philips screwdriver,.. annoying. Battery should not be preinstalled, the screw is a captive button, so not easy to remove of the equation for fast long term storage with battery removed. Aligns "perfectly" as package states is a bit overreaching, it really depends on what you are expecting... this is made of plastic extrusions or mold casted you can see the bends under weight/loading at various of the dovetailed sliding sections. It provides no adjustment for tilt nor nod,.. which happens to be needed due to non stiff enough plastic material, so you get some parallax angle error. (Shimming sort of solves, but is not fast nor practical, as the amount of flex varies as you "zoom in/out") Is it a fair buy at the price point?.. I would say it is a great buy at 35-40usd. Probably my view is skewed as I happen to have on site machinist capabilities/materials and tools, so I can see the manufacturing pitfalls/shortcommings more than average user would care. Decided to buy vs make my own due to cost-time balance.. and it does come with the bluetooth remote shutter,.. I can't make that on the lathe/mill,.. Does it hold the phone steady? Yes, much more than bare hands. So,.. if 60 bucks don't hurt your wallet at all,.. then it is an excelent buy. What about vs the 20 usd designs with no 3rd axis? Well if your application doesn't need frequent zoom in out for focus change,.. just get a cheaper one and shim the phone on the mount, save 40usd. A pitfall on all these telescope/microscope items is to not provide sturdy casings for storage/care with the item itself,.. people buy tools of this nature and expect to later transport them in airplanes and for them to be part of the inheritance one leaves behind, carboard boxes are cheap and convey a message of cheap quality contents.

Not sure why people complained about it not fitting the IPhone 12pro. It fits perfectly and mine has a classic otter box that in thick. Takes a sec to get adjusted. The 3 axis is the way to go. So I just found I did not complete this review and now I have a 17 pro max which is bigger than the 12 Pro. I love this mount. I have very expensive Astro cameras by ZWO but when I am using my telescope to just do visual I can just slap the phone on and get incredible 4 k photos and video on the fly

The z axis is a bit loose and wobbles, but the adjustment knobs give you a lot of control of positioning. The problem is that the clamp is too wide to work with binoculars, you can't get the lense close enough in. It would probably be good with a telescope or microscope.

I tested 4 different phone attachment devices and this one (in my opinion) came in a close second to one made by Accuview. I think both are very capable and this one has some benefits that might tilt your decision in it's favor. The most important positive for this one is that I found it insanely easy to use. Insanely. Easy. To. Use. The co-axial X-Y knobs were fantastic and the Z knob worked as desired. At first I thought the claw shaped clip would be a big negative but once the "safety clamp" was tightened down it was remarkably stable and it gripped solidly. The other pro is both a plus and my one negative - the whole unit is made of plastic. This means it's much lighter than a similar unit made of metal but it may not be as durable. A usage note - If you're looking for a phone mount like this you really must also have a remote shutter release device or you'll be fighting "the shakes" at every picture.

A sturdy, well made mobile phone attachment for a telescope, easy to use and a good fit. Value for money for the quality of this attachment.

Muy bueno. Cumple con su propósito

Super Halterung mit toller Feineinstellung. Man kann das Handy super und präzise über die Schrauben einstellen und es hält ebenfalls top an dem Okular. Selbst dann, wenn es nach unten stehen sollte

Reçu aujourd’hui de très bonne qualité le seul souci la vis est trop petite de la télécommande pour changer la pile, mais il y a déjà une pile à l’intérieur Pour info cet appareil de support téléphone où télescope et digiscopie est compatible et en matière aluminium pas en plastique

Es un accesorio muy util para poder alienar un smarthphone de manera rapida y precisa con el ocular del telescopio, el telefono cabe perfectamente con una funda de proteccion con poco relieve, adjunto unas fotos que logre sacar con ayuda de este soporte. El unico detalle para mi es la pila del control remoto que es muy dificil de colocar por que el soporte donde va la bota y cuando cierra la tapa algunas veces queda levantada y no hace contacto con su polo, pero en varios intentos queda bien fija.
