Guide Scope ?

[keppar]

Hi all
May be a silly question,but can a reflector be used as a guide scope. If so what problems are associated with it

Hi,

I dont see why not. The only issues that I see are

(1) Newts usually dont come to focus with a camera unless they are modified slightly, mirror moved etc.

(2) Depending on the size they are usually a lot heavier than a small 80mm achromat.

People use mak's to guide so why not :)

Cheers
