Just had a look at that site Paul, thanks for that. John, it all makes sense now. The 8" LX opening on the back measures just under 2 inches, whereas the bigger meades have an opening that's 3". It's a minefield that's for sure. Is the field reducer useful for widefield or is it just for photography? Any recommendations for something in the 40mm range for widefield, or am I better to strap a refractor on top, or just forget anything larger than the standard EP.
