Help Please focal reducer

[rogerg (Roger)]

A note that may or may not be relevant:

You'll find that by having the focuser between scope & FR the focal reduction won't be quite what it's expected to be. Ie, instead of it being F/6.3 it would likely be about F/7.5. I encounterred this with my setup that has the NGF-C between scope & FR.

Using the F/3.3 reducer in the same configuration I get F/5.7.

Something I have always wanted to solve this problem is one of these:

This would allow the image train to be dramatically shorter, and allow me to achieve F/6.3 and F/3.3 or anything between. You might consider one of these.

I'm still trying to spare the cash for one (always so much else to spend it on!) but it would be ideal in these kinds of situations.

It's always one more thing on the shopping list isn't it . I looked at those as well, but it just didn't make the top ten priority list

Having a look at that now thanks Roger,
