Hi Bob, what's the FL of this combo, and can it fit to my Qsiwsg8 camera?
Cheers
Andy
Edit: nevermind, Starizona says its 425mm but no adapter is available to suit my camera.

Hi Andy, the C8 alone is naturally F/10, & F/L 2000mm
With Hyperstar combo , = F/2, @ F/L 400m .

Edit, correct : is F/2.1 = 425mm

Pic of the Aluminium adapter I machined and cleaned up from a solid piece of billet, holds the C8 to a Vixen Saddle extremely well. The black piece is the original base to C8 - upside-down in pic, other way when in situ.
