Field Flattener Compatibility

Hi everyone,

I am looking to purchase a field flattener for my TS 80mm f/7 FPL-53 doublet, I current have these adapters for my Canon 500D:

http://www.sirius-optics.com.au/siri...t-adapter.html
I was wondering is there a specific field flattener I need or can I use a universal one without any side effects such as this:

Also will the thread from that flattener just thread onto the 2 inch end of my M42 to 2 inch adapter or do I need another component to make everything work?

Thanks,
Tom,

This is the one that TS recommend for that scope, their TS Flat 2,5.

Note the TS Flat2,5 has an M68 x1 thread to attach to the focuser.

Will that fit on the thread of the GSO 80mm 2 inch extension tube or do I need more adapters?
