Advice & Help Lens Adapter For Sony DSC-W1

Recommended Posts

I have a Sony DSC-W1. I have found the correct adapter "Sony VAD-WA " on amazon. My question is, the information say it will take 30mm filters, are these special Sony 30mm filters or will it take the standard 31.75mm (1.25") astro filters?

Thanks for your help

Thanks for the quick reply Steve. I was just about to pull the trigger on this and a Baader Neodymium Filter off your web site I still may buy the filter as I could do with it on my scope. But I would really like to be able to use filters with my camera as I like to take wide field images.

I use that filter on my Nikon 5400.

I fitted a spare eyepiece barrel to my existing adaptor to screw the filter into.

That adaptor that you link to for your camera, I wonder if it would be possible

to alter the front diameter a little to then Araldite in an eyepiece barrel, threaded

for filters.

It's worth putting a filter on as can be seen here.http://stargazerslounge.co.uk/index.php?topic=10026.0
