    Is it possible to use the camera with a 2.5" focuser? If so, what kind of adaptor?
    Thanks

    Hi Tim,
    I think I got one. The focuser is a 2.5" Moonlite. They apparently had a 68mm to 3" thread adaptor. How much additional vignetting will there be with this configuration?

    Dave,

    The Active Image area is 27.65 mm (H) x 18.48 mm (V)
    You should be fine with a 2.5 inch focuser.

    Of course! Should have been obvious. Thanks Tim.
    Regards
