Hello, As the title of the post states, I have an STF-8300m and a 10" LX200 F6.3 classic. The camera has always been used successfully with my Tak 102 refractor. I'd like to hook the camera up to my old Lx200. Can anyone help me with parts and pieces that are needed? I have the "2.7" Adapter Threads onto larger Meade SCT’s with 3.25" Rear Cell - Allows the Use of AP 2.7" Accessories (ADASCTLM27) " with the "2" Adapter With 3 Large Machined Thumbscrews (ADA2003A)" hanging off the back of the LX200. Thanks Scott Klein
Hi Scott, What do you have for a microfocuser on the LX200? The simplest arrangement might be to use the 2" nosepiece that comes with the STF, and the original Meade hardware. You've got an interesting collection of Astro-Physics adapters there - I guess to allow the most light through. Most folks would have an Optec, Moonlight or other microfocuser on the back of the LX200, and then go from there. They usually have an adapter that goes to something for a 2" eyepiece/diagonal or the M42x0.75 thread used on the STF. Cheers Colin
