    Hi! you guys...
    I'm planning to add a grating (SA-100 or SA-200 depending...) in my CFW-9 filter Wheel (1.25'' filters) for basic
    spectroscopy, and I need to know the distance between the CFW-9 filters and my ST-10 XME CCD chip. My installation is as follows: C11 Edge/Celestron focal reducer/Pyxis 3 rotator/AO-8 adaptative optics/CFW-9 filter Wheel and ST-10XME CCD camera...
    This info is needed for choosing either the SA-100 or SA-200, depending on the grating to sensor distance, and will same me time and effort!

    Regards!

    Roger, Here is some info on the back focus of the camera itself.
    The CFW-9 is "0936 thick.

    Knowing the BFD of the camera, I would measure the wheel at the exact point where the filter lip is and add the two together to be exact.
