Hey all:

Got my shiney new ED80 + NEQ6 (it didn't look THAT big in the showroom at bintel....). I take full responsibility for Sydney weather at the moment.

Yesterday I set it all up to look at a tree about 60 metres away just to get the hang of everything and found the focus point was about... 6 inches past the end of the focuser tube at full extension(and upside down)

Is this because the object I was looking at was too close? Or do I need a diagonal to lengthen the light path? Is there something I'm missing?

Thanks

Anthony
