Picture soon to come Do
you have minor to "Gorilla" mirror shift in your LX series or
other telescope? Are you thinking about installing a focuser after your
visual back to fix the problem? You may create more problems then
you fix. Some SCT scopes have limited room between the visual back and
scope fork and a focuser may make slewing to the zenith impossible. Or
you may not be able to come to focus with certain accessories like focal
length reducers or binoviewers because of the added length of the
focuser. If
nothing else the added length of the focuser will increase the
magnification of your SCT by as much as 15% Would
you like to have the problem eliminated quick and neatly without adding
any more length to the back of your scope or focal length?
At the same time have
your eyepiece holder a self centering type that is precise and holds
your eyepiece firmly without marring the barrel. Even with the thumb
screw compression ring type you really have to torque the screw down to
get a good hold on the eyepiece. Not so with the feather touch self
centering holder replacement sold by Siebert Optics. If we convert your
diagonal the cost is $149

What
this diagonal does when used with a Burgess/WO/Stellarvue and other
like binoviewers.
Focus your refractors including the WO/Astrotech ED
/ Orion 80mm and 100mm ED refractors. Without an
OCA! Sometimes you are so close to focus with binoviewer
in your 1.25" diagonal that you can almost taste it, but can't
quite get there.
Thread this diagonal on your WO/Burgess or
Stellarvue binoviewer and attach it to you refractor and you will be binoviewing without the added
magnification of an OCA and at a price that might be less expensive then
most of my OCA correctors.

Scope in solar use and
focusing nicely

We
will modify your own diagonal by shortening the neck attaching it to
the visual back. This allows full
slewing to the zenith with such scopes as the Nexstar 8 and Meade LX
scopes and many other types best known to the owners as having a
problem reaching the zenith due to a 2" diagonal. |
