Title: Ati 420 Focuser Mounting
Post by: jolasa on October 12, 2012, 11:03:36 PM

Looking at Quick Start PDF, says "put camera in focuser".

How?

Is there a nose piece provided with the camera, e.g. for 1.25" or 2" focusers.

Does Atik monitor this forum?

Need to know about mounting camera.

My Atik 460EX came with 1.25" nosepiece to T-Thread adapter. I believe all of the 400 series camera comes with 1.25" nosepiece. Atik calls it 1.25'' adapter.

There are two ways to attach camera to telescope:

1) Use 1.25" adapter and insert it in 1.25" drawtube of focuser
2) Remove 1.25" adapter and use T-Thread connection.

Hello JonS

We look in from time to time though in this case I can't improve on Peters answer.
