The thing with a film canister is that it is used to get your eye centred in the focuser. That is all it does. So get a bit of card, cut out a circle the same size as your focuser tube, punch a hole in the middle, hold it over the end of the focuser and look through the hole. It is not perfect but will enable you to get pretty close with your collimation.

Thanks Malcolm! I have heaps of cardboard from the packaging so that should do just nicely
