Meade SCT won't focus with f6.3 focal reducer
Hi everyone,

I cannot get focus when using f6.3 focal reducer/field flattener with my Meade 14" SCT LX200GPS.

The focal reducer/flattener goes on first then off axis guider and then the Canon 20Da. But the camera needs to go in closer to the telescope to focus. The way I have the accessories fitted to the telescope is the same as Meade have them pictured on their sight.

Any help will be much appreciated.

If no luck here I will be contacting Astro-Optical Supplies in Sydney, where I got all my Meade equipment.

Thanks again.
