And yes there is a supplier of those "T2-male-to-female" extenders; see here: http://myastroshop.com.au/products/cam-adapt.asp - I'll be ordering the 40mm one for myself as it seems that I've not been using the FF in the correct fashion as regards to the spacing - apparently this 55mm spacing is the same spacing for the EOS camera as I've noted this figure being always mentioned in many articles on the internet

Have to wait till next week since it's a long weekend here

Hi Bill,

Thanks for that......... I ordered the spacers (the pack with the 3,6, 10 and 20mm spacers) from Myastroshop on Wednesday, so with any luck should have them in the next day or so. Cannot wait to give it a go. I reckon I need around 32mm...give or take.....

Cheers,

Daniel
