Hi,
I've just been outside fiddling with the telescope, camera & adapter... the problem is definitely that the camera's sensor just cannot get close enough. Seems like it only needs another few mm's of travel and it'd be okay! Bugger.
<<< pauses briefly to go look at the focuser more closely... >>>
And yep, you're right. The end of the focuser does, indeed, just screw right off! Hadn't occurred to me to try and take it apart before.
I'll go set up the telescope again and have a crack at prime focus with the end-bit removed and see how it goes. If it works I'll post the result in a little while.
Cheers,
Chris
