 Coronado PST & Video Cameras To all, Does anyone have experience with one of our Astrovid cameras and the PST telescopes? I have a customer that cannot reach focus. If anyone can offer a solution it would be appreciated. Thanks!!!!

| Re: Coronado PST & Video Cameras This is a common problem. I have used the ToUcam webcam and it is also just out of focus. I ground down the plastic moog eyepiece adapter and shortened it and removed the lip. It got closer to focus but never quite made it. One solution is to use a 2x barlow which extends the focus out and allows a pic. Of course it also raises the power, possibly more than desired. I have only seen a few pics without using a barlow and I am still trying to figure out how they do it... John |
