Thanks for the offer Peter. But probably cheaper to buy locally than pay postage. The idea (as I see it ) is I can assemble a astrocamera from already available lenses and mountable body and fittings. The only thing I need to do is fit it up with a CCD system and it has a light train that can be altered with interchangeable lenses and takes advantage of some really cheap good glass, I've seen some prime f4 400mm lenses for $10.00 or so because they didn't work on newer cameras. No autofocus, zoom etc and people are lazy. They want auto everything whereas for astro the simpler the better.\
It's all about resources ...
