Solid construction.
Works great as a DSLR mount but pretty touchy when used for eye piece projection. Suggest you set it up well in advance of use.

Not to spec
In theory, this would be a great adapter, but the more powerful eyepieces don't fit. The 26mm fit great, but the 9.7mm 4000 series would not.All I can say is thank GOD for their easy return policy. Had this been a bay type site, I would have been out $58.00.The quality is great so it gets three stars, but only if you intend to use the low powered eyepieces (40mm, 26mm, 25mm, 15mm)which have a long body.

Buyer beware!
I've had a rather unpleasant experience with this adapter. I already own a fixed-projection camera adapter, so I thought I pretty much knew what to expect. When the Meade unit arrived, I was surprised to discover that none of my 1.25" eyepieces would fit the body. I got out a ruler and determined that the clearance bore of the adapter was about 1 7/32 inch - a whole 1/32" under! There was no way my 1.25" eyepieces were going to fit! Furthermore, the nose of the adapter was also undersized, making it a sloppy fit in a 1 1/4" focuser.I contacted Meade customer service and was told that the unit would have to be replaced, but that they didn't have any in stock, and that I should call back in six weeks. Trusting the Meade warranty, I waited, thereby eliminating my option of simply returning the adapter to the dealer.When I called back, Meade customer service agreed to have me return the adapter, only to report that it "worked fine" with their 4000 series eyepieces, and that there was nothing they could do about it. So they simply returned the adapter to me, leaving me with a $50 paperweight.I am pretty well convinced that the unit I received was the result of faulty quality control, but Meade isn't about to admit it!

I wish I could give this product ZERO stars!
I wish I could give this product ZERO stars!Very difficult to install and nothing to hold the eyepiece steady. Worst product ever!
