Thanks Tony. The reason for a FT is that I plan to get an ED refractor later this year, most likely a North Group ED102. By all accounts the OEM focuser is sub optimal, so I figure that I need a FT with decent draw travel.
So I plan to the FT with 2" travel, with the C8 adapter now and then get a separate adapter for the ED 102 once I have it and then put my Bintel 10:1 back on the C8.
sounds a good compromise?
