No I do not, It had some issues even with the moto focus. In different circumstances i would have replaced with some of the very nice new tailpiece and a fancy custom focuser. Am I correct in thinking an oversized diameter is most important if you do photography. Does anyone do black and white anymore? I had to make some quick and hard decisions on what to keep while i downsized. --- chuck.hards@gmail.com wrote: From: Chuck Hards <chuck.hards@gmail.com> To: Utah Astronomy <utah-astronomy@mailman.xmission.com> Subject: Re: [Utah-astronomy] Liver & Onions Date: Wed, 18 Jul 2018 08:41:59 -0600 Do you still have the focuser?

It would be good to see you again, Erik, you are a founding member of the L&O Subcommittee.
I have Jaegers 6" f/5, f/10, & f/15 lenses, as well as the 5" f/5, or I would have bought the f/5 from you.
I suppose we could bring some for-sale items, but it's looking like this one will be sparsely attended, so it's up to you.

BTW, in downsizing i scraped everything in my refractor except the lens, i will be selling it nationally if no local interest. So, last chance to keep a truly "rich field" objective in Utah.

Emulsion-based photography still has a few die-hard purists, but it's largely digital now. Many do narrowband imaging for false-color final images that are pretty darn good. I mostly wanted the focuser just because it's old Jaegers. They weren't the most precise focusers around, though I have one that was re-worked by Jim Riffle (Astro Works) and is smooth as silk. Back in the day, the 2.7" focuser was designed mostly to accomodate those huge military-surplus Erfle eyepieces. I don't think there is a commercial imaging chip that is large enough to take advantage of a 2.7" image plane. Or if there is, most regular folks couldn't afford it.
