T Ring for My Canon

[oasacorp]

Dear All, 

I am a complete newbie. I have a Celestron 130eq. I have a canon EOS1100D. I recently bought a Gosky T ring with adapter https://www.amazon.ae/dp/B013DID11A/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_y9AmFb8TR66W0  that said it's compatible with all canon EOS. However the t ring doesn't fit my camera. How do I purchase the correct t ring.

 

Also I just tried the adapter inside my telescope eyepiece. As there are no threads but just two side screw, I didn't feel it sturdy enough. So am I going about this whole thing wrong?

Hi and welcome to SGL, going by the description it should fit your camera, maybe a manufacturing fault or they've just sent the wrong one.

I’m with Dave in this. Assuming you have lined the mount up correctly with the alignment marks, if it doesn’t fit, it sounds like they’ve sent the wrong mount. 
I have the same scope as you. I bought this mount  https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B000237C9M/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

it fits with no problems.  
I added this barlow https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00009X3UV/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I can hang my EOS6d off it with no problems. Looks a bit precarious, but it’s all solid

i was able to take this with it.

+1 for what Brian said.

There will be a red or white dot on the T Ring, that has to be aligned with a red or white dot on the camera lens mount, before entering the T Ring into the lens mount and twisting to lock.

The bayonets on the T Ring are not identical to each other.

Can you post a picture of the bits you are trying to fit together in the order you are trying to fit them?

Here is the YouTube link: 

Can you also let me know how can I fix the adapter firmly in the eyepiece of telescope as there is no thread/ only two screws are there.

 

 

[Davey-T]

With the red dot on the camera and the red dot on the adapter lined up it should drop into slots on the camera before rotating a very short distance and locking.

I doesn't screw in just clips in the same as a lens.

The two screws in the eyepiece holder should be sufficient to hold it ok.

That looks to be the wrong T ring; it should just clip in like a lens would. It looks too small.

Thanks everyone. I will return the product then. How can I ensure that it will fit, is there any diameter I can check before buying. 

[michael8554]

If advertised for Canon EOS it will fit.

They have accidently sent one for a Pentax K I expect.

Just get a swap from them.
