Nice job Bo, and an inspiration.
I am going to buy an old Japanese 300mm f5.5 M42 mount lens from a local pawn shop ($50) and use it for astrophotography too.
At the moment I only have a short Vixen bar that I mount the camera on and have been thinking about the best way to give some support to the lens, which of course is 300mm long. This looks like a solution for me too.
Mind u I don't have a camera near so good as yours :-(
