One sub test of QSI & WOZS66 with dedicated flattener. i thought i had focused before I zoomed in. I should have made this another post

Does the flattener not match? Or is it out of focus?
Thanks

Do you have the correct spacing between flattener and CCD?

Rick

Fay, It's fine to link to huge versions if you like, but please can you put slightly smaller versions inside the IMG tags?

Fay

ok Rick

Perhaps not Mark. I had to add the QSI spacer, which screws into the camera & into the flattener. Or the camera may be too heavy for the focuser tube, as it has to be quite a way out

What do you think?

Does the QSI spacer put the flattener at the correct distance from the QSI ?
Growing Old is mandatory - Growing Up is optional

Fay

perhaps not, will have to do some testing & see if I have a narrower one that fits
