Note: Refractor telescopes require the use of a 2" Filter Selector/Diagonal combo, either the LD3015 or LD3025, to reach focus. Newtonians must be set up for photography to reach focus.
I was interested in this piece of equipment till I read this.
I hope this helps.
No disrespect to the seller intended.
Cheers:thumbsup:

Wouldn't that be the same with any type of filter holder? The increased spacing caused by adding the filter holder needs to be taken into account if you want to achieve focus.

If true, I didn't know that ,that is why I put the post.
Just for the unwary people like me.

Good info Ron and Ross, no disrespect at all Ron :thumbsup:, as a buyer any info helps to make an informed choice so you can judge if its what you need. Its about sharing the love in this game. Since this filter selector hasnt been used I dont have user experiences with it to share, as I mainly do imaging, hence the hyperlink to help out. On that note does anyone else have trouble accessing the Lumicon site, i havent been able to.

I did have trouble with the text going all funny a couple of times. Apart from that it was all good.
