Download the free ccd calculator by Ron Wodaski. Its very handy for seeing what the field of view will be with different telescope/camera combos including reducers, barlows etc.

The Tak 1.6Q extender is a nice piece of gear which I have used to image a galaxy with a TEC180 and KAF8300 chipped FLI Microline 8300.

It takes longer but does work.

Reducers can be tricky as they often give coma in the corners.
