Plenty of info on SGL on using the SW 9x50 as a guidescope.

Just one thread.

 

I've looked but none of these answer the question on how to attach 9x50 to a DSLR's l bracket. I have no issue attaching ZWO cam to the scope.

Has anyone used this as a guidescope? I've connected ASI120MM mini with an adapter, focusing works well, but I am not sure as to how to attach this to my DSLR. 

@ddm4313You can do it this way,
