This versatile adapter also features a standard 2" filter thread (thread specification is actually M48x0.75) all the way through on the inside. Hence, this item can also be used as a 48mm female-female adapter (gender changer) or even as an SCT male to M48 female thread adapter.

      4.0 Did its job.

      Pros:

      Accurate

      Cons:

      Inconsistant termonology

      Comments:

      One challenge in trying to use astro parts in regular photography is working out which adapters are needed to hook widget A into ring B. This one fit my need perfectly.

      My only complaint was that figuring out THIS adapter is what I needed was non trivial.

      Bottom Line: Would you recommend this item? Yes
