Hi Raymo

I think I might have a Bintel eye piece projection lens somewhere

Might give it a go

Thanks

EP projection adaptors don't have a lens. I have an old adaptor with either
a Canon T ring or an M42 T ring that you can have for $15 posted if you
are interested, or of course without the T ring if you already have one.

Hi Raymo
I checked my cupboard full of bits and pieces and found a Bintel camera projection adapter and T ring ( never used it ) As well as the camera projection lens I mentioned previously

Thanks for the offer though

Cheers
Martin

Look forward to seeing the results. I've been imaging for 68 yrs and have never heard of a camera projection lens, what does it look like?

I've heard of eye piece projection but this thread made me look up what it was.

Is this the eye piece projection lens you're referring to Martin ?

I know what it is now; its not a lens at all, just a method of attaching an eyepiece to the camera without using a traditional fixed or telescopic
EP projection adaptor. It is fine if you are happy to use just one EP, but it
makes far better financial sense to use a traditional adaptor if you want to use several of the EPs in your collection.
