What magnification, you have your camera piggybacked, so you are not using your optics of your scope, just the stability of your mount???
I was thinking of submitting to AS&T finally as in the past I still thought I could do better.The field of view is the full 20D sensor 23.8x15 mm with a 300mm optic gives 4.58x 2.86 degrees.
Yes it is the kitsrus relay box.
Even though the saxon is only an achromat (600mm F5) with the toucam capable of being moved laterally can always find a guidestar without changing the framing of the target object.There is a focal reducer in front of the toucam to give a final focal length of 350mm for the guidescope.
Here is a picture of the setup.
