help required to find an adapter

[ScubaMike]

Hi All,

I'm stuck trying to complete my image train.

Basically I need an M57 Male/Male adapter.  I've hunted high & low over the web without success.

I'm hoping one of you good folk knows of somewhere that might do strange adapters.

 

Image train is Canon EOS-M60 -Borg 7601- Hutech OAG (missing this bit) Borg M57 - 2" - M48 field flattener.

 

(Alternatively, an M57 Male to M48 Female adapter would do the trick)

John who makes stuff for FLO will probably make you one but may be a bit pricey for a one off.

Borg used to make the M57 Male/Male adapter that I think you're looking for. It's on the top row of page 9 of this old catalogue:

https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=images&cd=&ved=0ahUKEwjzoeLSpe_NAhXHFpAKHaDWCBAQjhwIAw&url=http%3A%2F%2Fsciencecenter.net%2Fhutech%2Fcatalog%2Fcatalog-2010.pdf&psig=AFQjCNHIk0ctqo6LdIJtLaORA9vq9yRhBw&ust=1468459413749182&cad=rjt

You could try to contact Borg directly in Japan, or Astro Hutech who are their worldwide distributor, to see if they still have one.

I think it might be this: http://www.sciencecenter.net/hutech/prices/borgparts/html/7457.htm

or this: http://www.sciencecenter.net/hutech/prices/borgparts/html/7458.htm

I don't know my male from my female - quite worrying at my age!

Thanks both for the responses.

I think you're right Patrick.   Not only that, but FLO stock them.

I'll fire off a mail to them tomorrow, and see if it is in fact the one I need.

 

That document is really useful, it gives good detail on the adapters
