Hi Martin

There are two main methods used with a telescope in astro photography.

The first image shows the “Prime Focus” method.
The second image shows the “Eyepiece Projection” method.

For Prime Focus, you need a T2 adapter which fits the DSLR (without lens) to the telescope focuser.

I think your photo shows a device used for “Eyepiece Projection”.

Cheers

Dennis
