2—The Meade electric focuser has a 2” (and 1.25’ with adapter) female end on it. So, to connect the LG1025 to your electric focuser you need LG5103 adapter in front instead of the LG5100 which comes with the LG1025. To hook up the LG1025 to your G9.25 without the electric focuser just the LG1025 with its standard adapter (LG5100) will work.
3 – No. I am assuming when you say “the Canon DSLR adapter” you mean the Canon EOS T-Ring---- our part number “LT1015”.
4 – If you are talking about using the DSI as the guider only, no problem. It has a 1.25” tube to fit in the eyepiece slot. You may have to get an extension tube if you do not use a diagonal. If you are talking about using the DSI as the main imager you could use a LA1070 to screw on the back of the EZ guider. To drop in the DSI.

Hi,
One of the benefits of the giant easy guider is that the guider portion can be rotated around the guider assembly without changing the focus or removing the camera. This makes it far easier to find a guide star as you can rotate the pickoff prism until you find one. You should get an off axis guider with this feature.
