Ealing - direct projection setup for imaging
Here's the connector-component layout for the direct projection lunar images taken on the Ealing taken this weekend. None of these are parafocal. The ep off of the flip mirrors is used for targeting. Focus can then be done on the laptop screen.

I haven't tested the negative projection setup. Enjoy - Kurt
