CCTV Board to 1.25" Telescope Adapter

This adapter allows to attach any board CCTV camera module which has standard mounting drill pattern for M12 lens holder (2x D=2mm drill holes with 20 mm spacing) to a 1.25" telescope focuser. I already had Aptina MI5100 sensor board which I primarily use in a self-made digital microscope for DIY PCB inspection. And wanted to try it out on my 6" telescope for astrophoto. Conclusion - DON'T BUY, quantum efficiency and control API of these camera modules is poor. The images I am getting from this module are way too dark: https://www.ebay.com/itm/5-0MP-mini-CCTV-board-usb-camera-module-2592x1944-1-2-5-Aptina-MI5100-CMOS/183824130476 Better save money on specially designed USB astrophoto sensor or DSLR camera. But if you like me - got a telescope but already had some CMOS/CCD CCTV board sensors in your drawer - here is the adapter for your convinience.
