Recently I purchased a Televue 2" 2X Powermate to use on my FS102 primarily for photography. Last night I put it on and was trying to frame M13 and was disturbed by the fact I had to have no less than 3 extensions, plus a Televue 2" diagonal behind it to hit focus. The order they were mounted was" scope/focuser, Televue extension (2.5"?), 2" extension, 2.5" extension, diagonal, 2" camera adapter, camera. Is this normal, or did I just do something stupid? I'll admit to being in a hurry while trying to get this image done because it was getting late (early?) and perhaps I just overlooked something obvious. I'm concerned about flexure in such a long assembly inhibiting focus across the film plane. Please give me your thoughts/observations on this.
