For $149 on Amazon I figured I'd take a chance it would be ok with the 80mm. It arrived today and it turns out I had nothing to worry about. It's designed to work with their 70, 80 and 102mm scopes, (it has a 2" extension tube on the front for 102mm scopes) just remove the 2" to 1.25" adapter from the focusser and screw to the reducer (the adapter has a 48mm thread on the inside), and insert into the focusser. Done.
It looks like when the SV305 camera is fitted to the 1.25" end it sits at the focal plane, but I can't confirm it yet as I have the dreaded lurgy ('vid) so won't be doing much for a while.
All very well thought out. As a bonus it should also work with my 102mm Celestron. Now I'm just waiting for the Canon adapter (48mm thread, my current one has 43mm).
