Hi Roger.

Do you have a motor on your JMI? I would think if you have a motor on it, the only way it would slip were if the pressure against the tube was far too light such that the tube can slide without the focusing shaft rotating.
It's not a slipping, I have an optec FR attached to the camera and I can lift the camera up and down with noticeable movement in the focuser tube of the JMI.

Thanks for the info Dennis. I'll pop my JMI in the mail this week. When can you have it back to me with the new grub screws.

Just so I don't take over Mick thread, I'll start a new thread on this issue later on after I take a few photos of the problem. Sorry for the off topic Mick.
