SolarMax RA drive p100 Sept 2006 S&T

On p100 of the Sept issue of S&T is an article by Sean Walker
on photography through the 40mm PST.
Can any one identify the useful RA driven mount used as shown
on bottom left of p100 ? Better still where can it be gotten ?
Again does anyone recognise the particular adapter used to
connect the Canon Camera lens to an eyepiece, and again the
supplier ?

G'day Gerald, is that the American S&T? I've lost track of where the Australian ones (mags) are up to.

Solarmax mount and camera adapter

Advice is that the mount was made by Apogee but discontinued some years ago (pity - the article would have created a bit of a demand, Corando could do well to offer such a thing themselves). The camera adapter is a Digi-T from Scopetronix (stipulate Camera model and precise eyepiece to be used
when ordering).
