Hmm your camera is different than mine.
On my camera the wires go on the left hand side of the cristal.

OK - mine arrived in the post today. Works well on both the PC's and the Macs at home. I like the focus adjustment - very sharp at full resolution.

Anyways - time to get the lens assembly off. I'll leave the rest in the original case because it is such a good fit into a 1.25" focuser as it is.

Cheers
Chris

Hi,

I am waiting on mine to arrive, should be fun modding it at least. Seems to take decent pics as well.

Daniel...

You'll find there's a great range of adjustment in the filter controls too, supplied software is very good.
Have fun guys

Bill

Mine came apart easy-peasy. A bit of wriggling with a wee screwdriver and the whole assembly slid out. A gentle nudge to release the blob of goop holding the circuit board to the shell, and the split shell came apart and the focusing 'ring' / lens assembly was out. Toss over left shoulder.

Reassembly was somewhat more difficult as apparently three hands are required. Plug back in to test...all working. Now a dust cover to prevent blobs on ccd. Aha! Lens pops out of focusing assembly, so just screw it back in.

Cool!
