Hi Eric

You may what to consider using the diffraction spikes created by the secondary vains to focus your camera. The method works very well. Generally when the scope is out of focus you will see double lines above/below and left/right of a moderately bright star. Adjust the focus until the double lines merge to one single line above/below and left/right of the star. Done your scope is in focus.
