For some reason I couldn't get anything to come to focus the first time out with this reducer.
I'm tring to use it like this:
Celestron 6" refractor -> 1 1/4" visual back -> reducer screwed into T adapter&ring -> Canon DSLR.
The scope has 5 1/2" of focus travel and I still couldn't make get it to focus.
Am I doing something wrong? Is there some magic distance that the reducer needs to be from the focal plane of the camera?
I also have a 5" Mak and a 10" SCT that I could try it on too if it would work any better.
Planning more tests tonight so any tips are greatly appreciated.
