An update on the Agent webcam.
I've managed to get it apart, slip your fingernails into the joint between the main body and front cover and give it a wriggle as you pull and it slides out.Do it a bit at a time as you also have to push the USB cable into the body otherwise you'll break the fine wires inside. Haven't yet figured out how to get the front cover off safely to remove the lens. Just had a bit of a play around with it in daylight mounted behind the eyepiece on the 60mm by way of a Lumicon adapter. The mounting hole for the supplied stand is a standard camera tripod thread. If nature is kind and the clouds stay away tonight I'll try some shots of Jupiter and bright stars. BTW the camera body is 1mm less in diameter than an 1 1/4" eyepiece, so a piece of 0.5mm (0.020") brass or steel shim wrapped around the body should make it just a neat fit in the focuser when i get around to trying prime focus with the lens removed.
