Soft bag for planetary cameras

franco

I like the soft bag that came with my DSO cooled camera and would like to buy something similar but smaller for my planetary cameras. I would also like lens covers. Any plans to sell these?

Cheers,

Thanks for your support, i forwarded to our team.
Planetary cameras come with a 1.25" cover and 2" cover.

I don't use the 1.25" nose piece and I don't want to leave the camera connected to the telescope, so it would be good to have a cover.

Hi Franco, I see your problem with not having a nice soft pouch.
For the 2" cover you can use the 1.25" cover together with the nosepiece. Makes for a good cover that way.

The 2" plastic cap would also cover a 2" adapter with a filter at the end.

I've tried to find these on the web but they all seem to be threaded and made of hard plastic.

Hi Franco,

Are you looking for one of these?

I think this is the set I had at one time bought from Agena. They fit over the 2" flange of a ZWO hockey puck camera. Agena has all kinds of these end caps for different sizes; but be careful, some of them are hard plastic. The rubber ones are specially labelled as rubber.

If the camera's flange is not tall enough for a flter, you can always add a 5mm or 10mm M48 spacer to the camera. But the end cap fits fine with a typical 1.25" filter in the M48-1.25" adapter.

Perfect, thanks Chen.
