The components in the above setup for sale are:
1. Fieldscope and Eyepieces
a. Swarovski 80 HD STM x 1                    $15,000
b. Swarovski 30x-eyepiece x 1                 $2400
c. Swarovski 45x-eyepiece x 1                 $2600
d. Swarovski Teleconverter TL800              $3000

2. DIY components for vibration control and coupling the eyepiece with the digital camera
a. Long Plate x 1                             $800
b. Adaptor x 3                                $2000/piece
c. Supporting Bracket x 2                     $700/piece  (One for the 30x/45x eyepiece and the other for the TL800)

3. The digiscoping camera (Optional. You may use your own camera on the above gear)
a. Ricoh GXR body + 24-72mm Lens Module + Electronic Viewfinder + Cable Release + 2 pieces of battery + Adaptal Tube = $5600
b. Nikon CP8400 x 1      $1800
c. Nikon CP8400 X 1      $1200
d. Accompanying batteries for CP8400 x 3 + Charger X 1

It is my wish to sell items in (1) in one go without any breaking. For items in (2), my advice is you buy the long plate, two adaptors and 2 supporting brackets. The two adaptors are adjusted to be as vignet free as possible when used along with the 30x and 45x eyepieces. At present, vignet free conditions can be obtained from around 32mm to 72mm when the adaptors are used along with the Ricoh GXR and its 24-72mm zoom lens. As regards the two supporting brackets, you need them for one works with the eyepiece while the other with the TL800.

As have said, you can use your own compact digital camera on the above equipment. My advice is you consider the offer because DIY items in (2) were made for them.

Write me here or send me PMs if you are interested. You can leave me your mobile for ease of direct phone chats to talk things over. For photos taken with the above setup, please click into the following link and find the corner Animal for detailed viewing: http://www.flickr.com/photos/wk7leung/

Please note that the DIY adaptal ring in the photos of the first posting has been anodized and it has been in black now. The same treatment has been done to the other two adaptors.

Give this thread a little push before calling it off.
