Which field flattener should I get?

Hi, I have a William Optics Megrez 72 and a Maxvision 127mm ED (meade copy).

Can anyone recommend a field flattener that will work reasonably well with both of these?

Doesnt have to be perfect, after good bang for buck

You have not stated which camera you are using. Whatever you decide on make sure it has enough backfocus to allow you to grow. Many FF available for refractors are built with DSLR's in mind and do not offer enough flexibility.

350d now but will look to CCD in future, I went with the Hotech as it seems to be the best bet for 127mm ED I have.

Cheers. Hope it works with CCD
