Camera adapters

Almost anyone observing an enthralling scene, who, after waiting patiently, finally spies a rare bird or a fine stag or even experiences the spectacular atmosphere of a landscape, would love to capture this unforgettable moment for eternity.

SWAROVSKI OPTIK has developed special photographic equipment, which matches different types of cameras perfectly to SWAROVSKI OPTIK telescopes and binoculars. These highly functional adapters combine camera with telescope or binocular to become a flexible unit suitable for all kinds of photography – and it becomes significantly easier to capture extraordinary moments on film.

  • UCA


    UCA - Universal Camera Adapter

    A single adapter for compact and digital single lens reflex cameras. Suitable for all SWAROVSKI OPTIK telescopes. For a quick change from observation to photography and with the added benefit of being extremely secure, steady and compact. It is also incredibly light at only 350 grammes: The newly developed UCA from SWAROVSKI OPTIK leaves nothing to be desired.

    And the best part of all: Thanks to the innovative SWAROFAST function, you only need to adjust the position of your camera once in relation to your telescope. The camera can then be removed from the adapter and placed back in exactly the same position without any need for readjustment.
