SBIG AO-X & DC-3 Short

This is a setup that I have previously used with a QHY600 but it has been sitting unused in its original packaging for a while. As it stands, it is not something I'm likely to be using again; not changing telescopes again in the foreseeable future and it doesn't have the back focus.

Includes the SC-3 Short & AO-X bundle that contains all of the screws and bits to connect the two together; can be attached onto some of the SBIG cameras without the need of any adapters.
Included will be two adapters I had made for sandwiching this setup between a FLI Atlas focuser and FLI CFW 2-7. Useful if you happen to have those two components, albeit unlikely!

It did work exceptionally well while I was using it. As a note, the SC-3 is the short version meaning it is better suited for cameras with less backfocus (most cameras except for the FLI CCD's but it should be fine on their CMOS range).

Looking for $4,250 ONO, shipping included.
