Product Details

While the Rokinon/Samyang 135 F/2 lenses are excellent performers for astrophotography, they do not natively have the hardware for mounting a dovetail (to be used with most telescope mounts) nor the option for an autofocuser due to its inherent helical focuser design. These rings + brackets for the lens solve both of these problems in one high quality product. In addition, a bracket designed for the ASIAIR is included which also functions as a plate for mounting other devices (Mini PCs, USB Hubs, Pegasus Astro Pocket Power Box, etc). Everything needed to use this setup is included other than your own Samyang or Rokinon 135 f/2, Dovetail, ZWO EAF, and ASIAIR (or other aforementioned device).

All components are printed in durable PETG plastic, which will withstand temperatures up to 90°C/194°F. The holes contain metal threaded inserts, which prevent stripping of the holes, allowing for frequent assembly and disassembly of the mounting system.

Important notes:

  • Please note that this is a 3d printed product typically made of a plastic material (see item description above for the exact material used).
  • The cosmetic finish on 3d printed items will vary and will not be as polished or smooth as metal items. It is not uncommon to have imperfections such as scratches, scuff marks, or inconsistent surface finish. However, these have no functional impact on the use of the item.
  • 3d printed items should not be subject to very high operating temperatures (for example, left in storage in hot sheds, cars, etc.) and exposure to sunlight should be minimized.
  • Notes on some commonly used 3d printing materials:
    • PLA: Most commonly used material in 3d printing; derived from corn or sugarcane so is biodegradable; basic PLA should not be exposed to over 125° F and exposure to sunlight should be minimized; available in custom formulations that can withstand higher temperatures and solar exposure.
    • PETG: Another very popular 3d printing material; has smoother surface finish; water resistant; should not be exposed to temperatures usually above 160° F.
    • TPU: More expensive but more durable; is elastic and resistant to low temperatures, abrasion, oil, chemicals and wearing; can withstand ambient temperatures up to 175º F
    • ABS: A strong material used for strong and durable parts; able to withstand temperatures of up to 200º F
