Mounting camera lenses on these cameras it is often a problem to get the chip

close enough to the lens to reach focus at infinity. This is probably the problem

here, but it should disappear when you put the camera into the focuser of your

telescope. Looking forward to seeing your images with the Flea -

Got my new Flea camera in the mail yesterday! Now the marine layer is back,

though, so I <BR>

couldn't try it out on Mars this morning. I'll have to check and see what time it's

rising in the <BR>

evenings, because when we get one of these weather patterns, it's almost always

overcast by <BR>

3am or so. <BR>

<BR>

The 4.5m firewire cable with the ferrite beads at the ends must be the one that

ships with the <BR>

Flea camera, because it looks like that. <BR>

<BR>

So, since I can't see the sky, I've been playing a little with a couple of lenses and

my Mogg <BR>

adapters that came last week. So far, I've tried an 11mm C-mount lens and a

70-210mm <BR>

Quantaray zoom lens with a Nikon bayonet mount. With both lenses, but

particularly the C-<BR>

mount lens, infinity focus seems to be out of reach, like there needs to be an

extension <BR>

between the Mogg adapter and the camera?<BR>

<BR>

Hoping to try it out on the sky and the scope tonight!<BR>

<BR>

-Tim.<BR>
