    I want to connect CLA-X-CN STXL Canon EOS Lens Adapter FW8G-STXL.
    BUT FW8G-STXL can't connect Canon EOS Lens.

    In maunal case write it.

    In this case, one can use the self-guiding cover for longer focal length telescopes and add the standard cover for use with camera lenses where external guiding is quite acceptable.

    I don't know 'standard cover'. How to get standard cover?

    Is this item Standard Cover for the STXL Filter wheel? correct?

    Can I change cover FW8G-STXL to FW8S-STXL?

    The FW8G-STXL is too tall for a Canon lens to focus.
    You need the FW8S-STXL.

    You can order it from our ecommerce web site, or our from one of our Dealers:

    Yes. Correct.

    Yes. It is easy.
    Turn off power.
    Disconnect all cables.
    Remove the top half of the FW8G-STXL. It has the guider.
    The filters are in the bottom half.
    Put the new FW8S-STXL standard cover on top.

    Put the old cover in a safe place, with the HDMI cable.
    If you have the original antistatic bag, that is best.
