Hi, There wouldn't be much benefit in purchasing a 2" diagonal if you don't have any 2" eyepieces. A couple of things to consider are that 2" diagonals are ...
Hi to all, I need to buy adapters for a ALAN EGE II. Currently I have two adapters: T2-21 for inclusion in a SC (C9.25) and the T-25A as an extension. Using it...

Hello, I own a 5" f/9.3 achromat w/2" diagonal, a 3" f/10 terrestrial refractor, and a 10" reflector. I use both 1.25" and 2" eyepieces in both. I am buying...

Greetings all, Can photographic density solar film (Density 3.8) be made safe for visual observation with the addition of a neutral density filter? It's one...
Hi Tim, I don't think that would be safe at all. As you indicate, IR, and also UV, would not be blocked by an ND filter. Explain to the bean-counters that a...

Hi Mike Thanks for your suggestions. I still haven't had any luck with the Baader filters. I have Hutech, Lumicon and DGM filters and these all screw on and...
Hi Mike, I'm trying to find your review of the Semi-APO filter, but only see the Baader Fringe-Killer Filter review. Are they one in the same and you have...
Hi Wyatt, I have not reviewed the Semi-APO filter. The Semi-APO and Fringe-Killer are two different filters. Basically the Semi-APO is the Fringe-Killer...
