QHY5 internals

[Veracocha]

Just recieved a used QHY5 (mono) and when I opened it up a small (6mm) round nylon spacer dropped out. It looked like it had been glued to the PCB (almost like a stopper) but definately not standard. Any idea's why it would be there?

Probably a spacer of some kind, Welcome to QHY Cameras.

I don't think it's standard, the nylon bush/spacer was not well made and the glueing to the board was less than tidy.

Dont worry I had one in my camera as well, but it still works... So im not bothered.

I think I know. It looks like a stopper that ensures the faceplate doesn't go too far into the case. Very heath robinson.

Yup that sounds like pretty much what I saw in mine

The rattle of the bush flicking around inside.
