A DSLR T-adapter fits into camera lens hole via bayonet fitting and you screw in a 2" nosepiece or a coma corrector for newtonians to remove distortion. The SW 130 is a visual scope and so you may not be able to wheel the focuser in far enough to get focus?

Not sure about Olympus but usually place DSLR in manual mode so you focus yourself and bulb setting for LX, you need a delay or remote to open shutter so the camera is still.
