How to attach the Canon Powershot to the scope for 78p !!!!

I managed to make this very cheap mount for my Canon Powershot A60 for only 78p.

The item is called a "32mm Exp Coupling"

You can get the adaptor from the plumbing section of in the UK, but i'm sure there are loads of other places around the web.

In the picture above I have cut the plumbing adaptor in half so the eyepiece will move fully up the adaptor. Before it would stop half way down.

The camera's lens, fully extended fits in place snugly.

This seems to work really well, and i have tested it in the day light at 200x magnification.

Its as easy as that !
