If you are ever thinking of buying a cheap high quality
Cannon FL F1.4 MKII lens and connecting it up to your
astrophotography camera such as a QHY10C then you'll
probably need to buy some araldite as well.
I searched and asked around but could only find
a combination of FL to EOS and EOS to M42 which had
a spacing of more than the allowed 42mm from lens to sensor
spacing, so it came down to M42 spacers and araldite. It's
a bit rough but should work fine and give me some fun in running
a dual camera capture setup attached to the side of my scope
if the clouds over Adelaide would only bugger off!
