Does image degrade with extra glass in path?

It's a flat plate rather than a lens, but it does lose a small amount of light (claimed to be about 2% for the SX unit).

I mean that I don't have enough back focus distance on the RC10 to fit my intended imaging train (focuser, focal reducer, AO-LF, FW, camera) so, yes, this could also be described as not having enough inward focus travel. I'm currently using a Feathertouch focuser which chews up a lot of distance.
Cheers,
