2" SCT male to M42 male camera connector ring

Hi guys,

Going through the motions of attaching my soon to arrive cooled ASI camera to my filter wheel and Baader Mk III CC.

So what it looks like I need is an SCT 2"x24tpi thread male to M42 male ring that can attach my filter wheel to the CCD camera. Lots of Female/Male units out there but I need the MALE/MALE unit.

Anyone know where to get one of these??

The only issue this creates is that I then have to rotate the entire camera/filterwheel/coma corrector assembly to frame. Unless there is a unit like this which also rotates with and which locks but is only a few mm wide??...

Thanks in advance,

John K

Thanks Tony - I did see that. But then also found this:

Also, as my second option, although the sizing does not appear to be 2" but rather either 49mm or 52mm:

I think Peter Tan in Hong Kong also makes custom made adapters?

That might also be an option if you have any specific requirements.

Tony.
