Kudos to ScopeTronix

Posted By John Meiners
I originally purchased the Scope X EPs for the obvious reason; to adapt into & onto my cameras & scopes.. be it.. 14mm.& 18mm. wide views, or the 2" 40mm. I use them when just observing. the sliding tube on the 40 that prevents vignetting, works great for finding the "sweet spot" (position of your eye against the lens). The Optics in these EPs are wonderful. John M

Henry's Rig

Here's a shot of Henry's favorite truck, this year's OR. Star Party. My 5 yr old played with this remote controlled truck while I set-up my C8 for a little Wide-Field Photography. The Terrain was simular to that of the Australian Outback.. John M

My Thoughts

Posted By John Meiners
When people change the way they look at things, the things they look at change..
When we view all the Billions of Stars overhead here in the Northern Hem. then travel to New Zealand and view all the billions of stars visable to those down under.. try to imagine all the billions of Stars so distant from these vantage points, who's light hasn't reached us yet... JM

Reaching prime focus (Help)!

Posted By John Meiners
I have a Celestron 102 widefield Refr. I would like use it with my 35mm. OM-1.
here is the problem; without a diagonal I find I have to hold my camera at least 2 or more inches behind the fully extended drawtube. Is there an adapter I can get to make up the distance? or am I just going to have to use the dia.? thank you, John Meiners, Astoria, OR.
