I wonder if it has enough back focus to use with a QHY9m camera?

The current setup with the A7S is
Scope, M48-Canon adaptor, Mallabones Canon - Sony E adaptor, Sony A7S after focusing of 18mm of draw tube travel this makes approximately 70mm to the sensor face. There is plenty of draw tube travel left so I think that you should have no problem in getting a QHY9 to focus. At some point in the future I would like to try it with my 11002M and Filter wheel.

Thanks rick it's all down to Pixinsight's great DBE feature. There was some smoke haze in the air on the night I took the pic so there was a 'generous ' amount of LP to be dealt with. attached is an example of 1 sub showing the LP prior to removal.
