Hi all,
I have a celestron 8" sct on an eq6 mount, and am going to get an ed80 for imaging.
I want to mount the 80 onto the 8'' but cant seem to find anything that would do it... Do any of you have similar setup that you could advise on....

Cheers
Marty :help:

Hi, I bought a Losmandy Dovetail plate celestron 08 which is listed at Bintel for $ 159 page 5 of telescope accessories and Losmany Guide scope 125mm for $259 as listed. Web site address is www.bintelshop.com.au/welcome.htm (http://www.bintelshop.com.au/welcome.htm)

Make sure you phone and ask if would suit as I had to take some measurements of screw placements so I got the correct attachment device from my C8 tube to the Dovetail plate.

Good luck

Mark
