Thank you Greg
It is not the adapter but the two screws that hold the camera assembly in the focuser
Also sometimes they tighten right on the step of the focal reducer (it is a WO reducer/flattner).
I wish i could just screw the whole assembly on the scope so it would be rigidly connected.
Could go for a moonlight focusser but i am saving for a G11 at the moment.
