I've had the older redrock for a bit for my hvx with the 72mm achromat with the rubber coupling. I recently purchased the flip from a dvxuser and I can't get it to work. Do I need a different achromat? I can' get backfocus at all.
 
hi there . it is the dvx user who sold you the flip. have learded alittle bit about the set up. i think you need the 52mm acromatte.
 
the filp should have came with a 55mm achromate. which attaches to the filp. so in order to attach the 55mm achromate you'll need a setp-down ring of 82mm-55mm
so you don't use the 72mm achromate anymore.

There is a video tutorial on Redrock's site so you should check that out.

the same video's are on vimeo.com as well so do a search there.
hope that solves your problem.
Good luck!
 
Thanks. That's what I came to figure out. The flip I bought did not come with the 55 achromat. How do I get one? Redrock doesn't sell them outside of the kit.
 
did you buy it used?
you should have got the 55mm achromate because it only works with the MicroX.
if you can, contack the seller and try to get it.
without the achromate there is no use of the Flip.
it's like a car without keys.
 
I did buy it used, but I didn't get the 55mm achromat. I thought it would work with the 72mm that I already had. Apparently not and now I don't know how to get the 55mm without buying the whole kit.
