Hi Andrew

I'm not sure how auto focus works, but some cameras use an IR diode (active) and others measure the contrast between areas (passive) to achieve best focus. The low light levels found in eyepiece projection may make it difficult to auto focus? But that's the beauty of digital imaging, real time results and trash what doesn't work!

Let us know how you get on.

Cheers

Dennis
