Hi Guys I too have the Megrez 90 and the FF III My initial images with the FF III / M90 combination were disappoitning to sya the least. I then did some...
I'm in the same situation as Tom's, having a brand new Megrez 90, a FF 3 and a Canon 350 D (which is a XTi, as far as I know)as well as a T-system Eos adapter...
For what it's worth, the following is copied from the TeleVue webpage showing their FF/FRs: "The following products were all designed for an optimum 55mm back...
Hi Steve, Keep us posted on how well it works, as I'm interested on one for my FTL-110. Cheers, Rod Christchurch, New Zealand ... Enjoy a better web...
Lee, in my M110 it wasn't hard. Check my other message for a link to some photos that show how. WO sent me a new bearing assembly when I reported one had...
I was hoping it would arrive today (clear sky for at least a few hours tonight), but alas it was not to be. As soon as it arrives and I get a chance to use it,...
Glad to help Steve and Ed. I struggled quite a bit with flattener spacing with my M110 and FR-III *and* TRF-2008. With a DSLR you're in trouble with FRs that...
I'm not sure if many here have purchased the zenithstar 70ED yet; would be curious to know if others here have same scope. I just ordered and received mine...
Hi Sander, I don't think that the bearing problem is in the top part of the focuser IE: the 4 roller bearings, it seems to be in the focuser shaft assembly it...
Hi Lee, I look forward to your report after WO gets back to you. It's the right call to not remove anything till WO advises you to do do. I've also felt some...
Hi Sander, If WO gives me the go ahead to remove the focuser shaft assembly from the focuser, I will take some pics and post them in the photos section. Lee...
Hello Sander, I have been speaking to Tim at WO, he is being very helpful. He is going to send me pictures of how to remove the shaft assembly and if that is...
Roy, I thank you a lot for your precise information about Canon 350 D and FF 3. Having a T2 connector measuring 10mm, I have already ordered an Edmund brass...
The way it was explained to me is that the distance from T-ring to sensor in a DSLR is standard and a holdover from the 'old' 35mm days. That's why at least...
There probably is nothing wrong with your bearings. There are two sets of bearings in the mechanism - the three large ones which are open and visible, and a...
Hi Charlie, Thanks for the info. When you took the shaft assembly off and turned the focus knob was there any stiction or wobble with it spinning freely? I...
Maybe I'm an idiot but every time I attach my FF 3 to the T/Eos ring and this to my 350 D, I finish with the chrome screw of the FF which hurts the camera...
I had the same problem, but fixed it by adjusting the T-ring. Most T-rings consist of 2 parts: the actual T-ring and the part with the EOS (or other) mount. If...
When I took the assembly off the scope and turned the small and laege knobs, there was plenty of stiction. The Bearings were dry (as I noted before) and the...
Hi Nigel, I've seen your pictures and they look field rotated. The best way to test flatness is to shoot a bright star on different places of the sensor, on...
Hey Guys, Tim sent me the pictures and the instructions on how to remove the assembly. Even when detached from the focuser, and turning the focus knobs it...
Bill, I have exactly the same problem with my 350D. I find that I can have the camera connected and only just by a very small margin will the screw fit without...
Well, its arrived... and its MASSIVE... http://www.steves-astro.com/images/misc/20090406_wo_flat4.jpg (Yes, the can next to it is normal size, not mini-airline...
