Dave_S Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 (edited) There doesn't seem to be a section for this anymore, the adaptors section appears to be non functional, so I am posting it here. My WO flattener/reducer screws into the end of the focuser tube, which makes for a nice tilt free connection. However while the flattener, extension tube, and camera are a nice rigid connection, the camera is not rotatable, so framing the image as I want it, is not possible. The solution was to use an inline rotational adapter. I purchased this TS Optics item from Telescope Express in Germany:- https://www.teleskop-express.de/shop/product_info.php/info/p12074_TS-Optics-Rotation-Adapter--Filter-Holder-and-Quick-Coupling---M48-to-T2-thread.html Nicely engineered, slime profile, self centering, secure, and movement free when locked up. It also accommodates a 2" filter. In my case an Optolong E-Enhance. I can now set the camera at any orientation, lock it in position, and image with rigid end-to-end setup.
