While in NZ last weekend I was fortunate enough to view some stunning images taken through a Megrez 80 ED(
In my dreams). The owner had used a Televue 0.8X focal reducer and field flattener attached while imaging (from what I understand, mainly for the flattening effect). I was impressed to say the least. So much so I want to try to use one, but with a larger conversion rate, so to "speed up" my f/10 Celestron.
My question is....is any one here able to tell me if I can use an SCT Focal Reducer (Meade 6.3) on a refractor to achieve the result I'm after. Or do I need to get one specifically for a refractor. I'm in the process of getting an adapter so I can use the Meade OAG on the Refractor so putting an SCT reducer in the optical train will not be physically difficult. But will it be optically worth while.
Thanks
