Luke Bellani dropped by today with the prototype camera restraint or optical train stabiliser.

There are a few pictures below.

It is not finished yet as the two Al blocks will be adjustable and lockable top and bottom on the camera.

The sides will also have adjustable plates. The camera will slide on nylon pads for focus change.

The frame is mounted on two dove tails for easy lateral and axial centring.

What this device really means is that orthogonality of the sensor to the optical axis is adjustable by tweaking the frame pads. The RH200 if not unduly disturbed will keep it's collimation at factory setting perfection.
