The A45 corrector is useful for scopes such a Newts where the scopes focal ratio is F4 or F5 which means a smaller diameter corrector would actually vignette the incoming light cone.....

Ah! Thank you kind sir!
Makes sense now. So your panoptic 24mm will be more like an 18.4mm when factoring in the 1.3 x corrector, right?
