We just now have to get a Tmount for the camera that will screw into this new thread or make something up, not sure of the thread size, ID is about 60mm. My friend is a machinist so he is gonna make something up. Hopefully get some shots soon enough.

Not all Newts have this option. I posted some pictures to for my DOB but can't find the post. The 1.25" adaptor on mine unscrews to expose a "T" thread to insert the EOS to "T" adaptor without the 2" adaptor and I get about 30mm closer.
If someone could remember the post would be great.
