 Will the Regal spotting scope allow me to use NexImage in place of the eyepiece?
Answer

The NexImage will fit with no problems in the Regal’s eyepiece tube.

 

However, the Regal spotting scope has a very tiny back focus and you won’t be able to focus an image of an object at infinity directly on the chip of the NexImage camera.

You’ll need to use a Barlow lens like Celestron’s Ultima Barlow #93506 or the #93640 1.25” Universal T-adapter with Barlow. Put the Barlow in the Regal and then put the nosepiece of the NexImage into the Barlow.

The Barlow lens extends the back focus to a distance where the Regal can focus inside the NexImage.
