Nothing like a challenge

I'm minimising some probs by using a shutter release cable and RA tracking on my EQ mount. But I do notice it's not hard to make the image wobble.

So, is the answer to use Prime focus method? Cos I tried that and all i see is fuzz. Like looking throught the viewfinder without a lens on.

For this set up I use the same adapter but without the eyepiece. Is the camera too far away in this instance? Do I need a shorter camera adapter to bring the camera right up to the focuser?

BTW my set up is: 6" Newtonian, f=1000mm, EQ3 mount with RA drive.

cheers
