Counterweight bar adaptor


Jammy

Recommended Posts

I'm thinking about mounting an ASIair Pro to the counterweight bar of my Star Adventurer.

It will help balance up the Star Adventurer when using it with small scope, and also allow me to control the camera conveniently.

Anybody done this or anything similar?  Wondering if there are any such fixings that clamp to the counterweight bar?

The ASIair has both a 1/4" tapped hole (same as a dslr) and a finderscope type shoe.  The counterweight rod is 12mm diameter.

Thanks

I used to clamp it to a leg of the tripod.  Although it has a bigger diameter, its the same shape.  Round.  I used some nice black nylon pipe clamps??   In holland we have 12 mm pipes also, just like your bar!   You will need 2 of them so i hope you have some money savings for this purchase.
