I am guessing there are 2 issues. One is the clunkiness of the focus mechanism. I am not trying for pinpoint stars, but it is really difficult to adjust when it is sitting between the scope focuser and the filter wheel.
2, the camera has quite a large sensor.so the pick off prism is sitting well out from the centre line, so getting some distortion of star images from that.

Some thinking to do!!
