I have spent serveral days now trying to figure out how to attach my new ASI 6200MM camera and ASI EFW filter wheel to my Takahasi Epsilon. I have a tilt in the image train, so I also need a tilt corrector inbetween.
The filter wheel has a M54 female connector whereas the Tak overs a M54 male connection. So it would be obvious to use M54 components for the whole optical train. But I neither have found I a M54 tilter nor are there any M54 extension tubes or spacers on the market. It would be possible to go down to M48, but this will lead to vignetting. There is a good M68 tilter made by Astronomik, but for this I would need an adapter M54 female to M68 male, which is also not to be found.
Are there any Tak Epsilon owners who have solved this problem ? Any advice is welcome.
