Issue with Raptor 61 and Backyard EOS
I am fairly new at astrophotography and must be missing something basic here. I have a Raptor 61, a Williams Optics T-Ring and a Canon R6 for the optic path and camera. I am attempting to run it all with Backyard EOS (have tried both ver 3.2.1 and 3.2.2 for BYE). When using my standard Canon lens, there is no issue. When I use the above-described configuration, I am unable to take an image. LiveView works fine for framing and focusing, but attempting to take an image results in an Error. The log from BYE looks like:
20:28:33 Licensed to xxxxxxxxxx
20:28:33 BackyardEOS 3.2.2 Premium Edition
20:28:42 Attempting to connect camera...
20:28:42 Canon drivers 'Canon\' initialized.
20:28:43 EOS-R6 CONNECTED!
20:28:49 Unable to set LiveviewAutoFocusMode, current setting is assumed!
20:29:09 Imaging session started.
20:29:11 Capture Error: General camera error.
20:29:11 Imaging session cancelled
20:29:11 ERROR 36107 : EDSDK.EdsSendCommand(cameraRef, 4, 65539)
20:29:12 Imaging session cancelled
I have not been able to find a description of the error code. Any suggestions on next steps would be appreciated.

You need to go into the Settings on your R6, and enable it to take pictures when there is No Lens Present. (I don't recall the exact name of that setting.)
