There are two connection solutions for ASI6200MM Pro.
The first one is using the 2"EFW, M68 OAG and the 5mm sensor tilt adapter.
ASI6200(12.5mm) + 2"EFW(20mm) + M68 OAG(17.5mm) + sensor tilt adapter(5mm)=55mm back focus length.
This is the very first and also the most recommended connection solution. The combination of the mono full-frame camera
and 2"filter wheel can create many possibilities on your astrophotos. It's very suitable for the middle and high-level
astrophotographers.

- Page 2 The second one is using the M54 filter drawer, the M54-M48-2 adapter and M48-M48 extender. ASI6200(12.5mm) + M54 filter drawer( 20mm) + M54-M48-2 adapter (2mm) + M48-M48 extender (16.5mm)=56mm back focus length. This is a new connection solution for ASI6200(both mono and color camera). It’s more affordable but the back focus length is 56mm, which should be fine at most cases.

- Page 5 7) Fix the M68 OAG to the back cover of EFW(Note: You may reposition the prism to make sure it would not block the sensor): 8) Fix the 5mm sensor tilt adapter to this M68 OAG. If the thread of the telescope side is M42 or M48, then you should use the M54 sensor tilt adapter just removed from the camera.

- Page 7 Note: Please make sure the prism does not block the sensor or your telescope. Adjust the focal length of a guide camera by using the guide knob. Would be better if you finish the above steps during daytime, as it is very difficult to adjust it accurately at night. The detailed guide of the second connection solution: This solution uses the M54 filter drawer and can be rather simple compared to the first one.
- Page 8 No need to take off the M54 sensor tilt adapter of the camera. Just align the M54*0.75 external(male) thread with the sensor tilt adapter and screw on. Then connect to M54-M48-2mm adapter(come with the M54 filter drawer) and M48-M48 16.5mm extender(come with the camera).
