Re: Stowaway with large sensor
That looks about as expected for that monster chip.
Many thanks in advance. Looking forward to it.

Re: Stowaway with large sensor
Hi Chris,
The vignetting is quite modest. Here is a quantitative measure:

Re: Got the Cone point socket head screws for Stowaway
I did the same thing for mine, but with regular set screws from the local Ace Hardware. It really cleaned the back of the scope up and is a nice modification for visual only users like me.

Marc Fisher has done this with a 92TCC. Here’s an Astrobin he linked on this form a little while back showing the result: https://www.astrobin.com/aueo7t/B/

Stowaway with large sensor
Curious if anyone has tried using their stowaway and field flattener with either the qhy600 or zwo6200 camera.
I need an adapter to try mine out, but while I wait for a couple weeks thought I'd see

Got the Cone point socket head screws for Stowaway
Thought I would post a pic of my cleaned up Stowaway focuser after replacing the dove-lok set screws with the new socket head ones. It’s a nice little improvement for those of us that have little

Re: Mounting Stowaway to the 130 on the Mach 2
Thanks everyone for the thoughts and advice! I'll try a couple of options suggested and see how that work.

Re: ZWO color camera problem - Update
Glad the problem is fixed. Depending on characteristics of the color filter you may need an IR cut filter.
Discrete color filters often include NIR cut. But not all do
The OSC Kodak CCDs still need
