hi, i need advice regarding the collimation of my telescope. the telescope has a 127mm objective mirror with 1000mm focal length (f=8), but the tube is only 45cm long. inside the focuser is a lens/s to compensate for the short tube. this is making visual collimation very difficult, as the view is being alltered by the lens/s. i've marked the exact centre of the objective and i've tried collimating while the focuser is removed, but i still can't get everything lined up. any idea's?
FWIW.
Umm, Jarrod. Why the double post? Can get rather cofnusnig.
Besides which, you already have answers in your other thread.
I'm sure 'Mike n the Moderators' will take good care of you.
