  • PrimaLuceLab Adapter from M110 to M92 Female for ESATTO 4"

    The PrimaLuceLab Adapter from M110 to M92 Female for ESATTO 4" provides the essential mechanical link between the large-format ESATTO 4" robotic focuser and Takahashi's ecosystem of photographic adapters. This component converts the M110x1 male thread on the ESATTO's draw tube into the M92x1 female thread found on the original Takahashi focuser. This allows you to attach Takahashi's highly-regarded focal reducers, flatteners, and camera adapters directly to the ESATTO 4", combining Italian robotic focus control with premium Japanese optics.

    Bridge Your ESATTO 4" Focuser to Takahashi M92 Adapters

    If you've upgraded your Takahashi FSQ-106 or another large astrograph with the PrimaLuceLab ESATTO 4" focuser, this adapter is a non-negotiable component for astrophotography. It restores the native M92x1 connection point that your existing Takahashi accessories are designed for. Instead of searching for complex, multi-part solutions, this single, precision-machined ring ensures a direct, secure fit for your complete imaging train.

    Maintain a Rigid, All-Threaded Imaging Train

    In observatory-class imaging systems, every connection point is a potential source of flexure. This adapter eliminates the risks associated with push-fit or compression ring systems by maintaining an all-threaded connection from the focuser to your camera. Machined from aluminum and black-anodized, it provides a rigid, non-reflective interface that protects your investment in both the focuser and your optical correctors.

    Seamless Integration with the PrimaLuceLab Ecosystem

    This adapter is part of PrimaLuceLab's comprehensive system designed to automate your astrophotography. By enabling the ESATTO 4" to work with Takahashi optics, you can leverage the full power of PrimaLuceLab's PLAY software and EAGLE computers to control your entire setup. This component ensures that your optical train is as robust and integrated as the electronic control system managing it.

  • What is the primary purpose of the PrimaLuceLab M110 to M92 adapter for the ESATTO 4"?

    This adapter's sole function is to convert the M110x1 male thread on the draw tube of an ESATTO 4" focuser into an M92x1 female thread. This M92 thread is the standard used by many Takahashi photographic accessories, allowing you to connect them securely to the ESATTO focuser.

    Can I use my Takahashi focal reducer with the ESATTO 4" focuser using this adapter?

    Yes. If your Takahashi focal reducer or flattener connects via an M92x1 male thread, this adapter will allow you to attach it directly to the ESATTO 4" focuser. It is designed specifically for this purpose, enabling the use of Takahashi's optical correctors with PrimaLuceLab's robotic focuser.

    Is this adapter compatible with any focuser other than the PrimaLuceLab ESATTO 4"?

    No, this adapter is specifically designed for the PrimaLuceLab ESATTO 4" focuser. It will not fit smaller ESATTO models (like the 2" or 3") or focusers from other manufacturers, as the M110x1 draw tube thread is unique to the ESATTO 4".

    I have a Takahashi FSQ-106; is this the correct adapter to connect my camera train to an ESATTO 4"?

    Yes, this is the correct adapter. The Takahashi FSQ-106 is a primary use case for the ESATTO 4" focuser. This M110 to M92 adapter ensures that the standard Takahashi accessory ecosystem, which you may already own for your FSQ-106, can be used with the upgraded robotic focuser.

    Does the M110 to M92 adapter add significant length to the optical path?

    While this adapter is designed to be as mechanically thin as possible, any adapter will add some length to the optical path. You must account for its thickness when calculating your back focus distance. It is crucial to ensure your complete imaging train meets the precise spacing requirements of your flattener or reducer.

    Why is a threaded adapter like the M110 to M92 important for astrophotography?

    Threaded connections are critical for preventing tilt and flexure, especially with heavy cameras and filter wheels. Unlike compression rings or set screws, a direct-threaded connection like the one this adapter provides ensures that all components are perfectly coaxial and held rigidly in place, which is essential for achieving sharp stars across the entire image field.
