    Just looking at your Samyang 135mm F2 lens set up (attached). 

    I have the Geoptik adapter but can't fit it on the back without a spacer as the foot of the geoptik gets in the way of the EFW when screwing on.

    What spacing does this give you and what are your stars like?

      I couldn't sqeaze a efw in so did mainly Ha. Flo now sell an adapter designed by Rob Preston, which does require swapping out the canon bayonet but its a doddle and i can now use my efw :D

      Thanks, I am going to hang on for an EOS to CCD adapter as that locks and doesn't have a foot, and with the EFW I have been told this is pretty much the perfect spacing.

      Will use the Geoptik while I am waiting (as it is made in China and Bern is out of stock), and will just use an inserted Ha filter until then.

    Hi Peter,

    You replied about me wanting a Canon DSLR offering me a 1000D.

    A few questions:

    a) Does this have live view?

    B ) Is it Astro modified and if so does it have glass/baader replacement filter?

    c) How many shutter counts.

    D) Does it come with battery and charger (in case mine don't fit).

    E) How much are you wanting for it?

    Thanks

      I have a CLS filter but might be interested in the Ha filter.

      Hi Carole,

      A) Yes it has live view

      C) The shutter count is 5390

      D)  Yes it comes with battery and charger.  It also comes with a mains-powered battery replacement power unit, and a 64GB SD memory card.

      E) It cost me £300 in total.  I would accept offers around £140 plus postage.

      The Astronomik EOS Ha Clip filter cost me £147.  I would accept offers of £110.

      I have found one now thanks Peter.  Not quite sure where I put this post as it didn't seem to come up in messages.
