William optics z61 focusing problem

[william_swe1]

So i just got my first telescope for my astrophotography setup. I then 3dprinted a 1,25” to ef adapter from this link https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:198816

problem is that i cant focus on anything when attaching my Canon 1000d. But I can get the image is in focus if i hold the camera next to the 1,25” hole. It is as if the telescope does not extend long enough when adjusting focus.

I suppose the William optics z61 flattner would fix this. But I can’t afford it yet. 

How do I focus my telescope. would a barrow lens fix this issue. I am quite new to this, so use simple words

How about an extension tube?

The focuser unscrews from the scope then the T ring can screw straight on the end with a suitable adapter, I think my WOZ61 came with one supplied.

FLO probably sell them

Hi William , did you get everything sorted ?

I have just bought a WO Z61 + Flattener and even with the flat installed I still have to extend it 5mm or so to achieve focus . Not a hardship , but it was a bit puzzling why this is the case . Still , its all good now .
