Adapter for Celestron OAG and F/.7 reducer
Pros: Cons: Comments:After purchasing an OAG and a F/.7 focal reducer from Celestron, I realized the were not capable of obtaining the required 105mm needed for proper back focus. Thank you Agena and Blue Fireball for this adapter for making this combination usable!
Bottom Line: Would you recommend this item? YesThis review was provided courtesy of AgenaAstro.com
Nov 13, 2018For backfocus sensitive applications
Pros: Cons: Comments:If you have a filterwheel and OAG, you are going to need this.
Bottom Line: Would you recommend this item? Yes
Keep in mind that unlike other SCT adapters, this is a single piece. There is no rotation ability. Combines well with a slimline T-Thread rotator.This review was provided courtesy of AgenaAstro.com
Aug 16, 2017exactly what I needed
Pros: Cons: Comments:The back focus of my Meade f6.3 focal reducer is shorter than the Celestron T adapter I've got, meaning that the field was nowhere near flat. This dingus is really low profile, meaning I can stack spacers to my heart's content to get exactly the spacing I need.

Sep 29, 2016Works great to minimize backspacing
Pros:Compact,Easy to Use
Cons: Comments:I used this adapter on an 8" EdgeHD imaging setup between the focal reducer and Celestron OAG. It is the only part that I found that allows this configuration to work within the backspacing specifications of the system. It's worth consideration in that scenario. I also could see this working in various setups on an SCT where backfocus is always at a premium.

Mar 27, 2015Essential Adapter foSCT Telescope Owners
Pros:Strong Construction,Lightweight,Accurate,Compact,Easy to Use
Cons: Comments:I consider this adapter an essential item for anyone who owns an SCT telescope and would like to connect a camera for astrophotography. The SCT thread is unique and usually only mates to a focuser, reducer, or corrector. With this adapter you can mount a filter wheel, camera, or spacer as close to the optical tube assembly as possible.

I haven't had a "lemon" yet!! They are quality products, at least the several I've bought from Agena AstroProducts and are an excellent value.
I haven't mentioned the excellent service Agena provides, so I shall!!This review was provided courtesy of AgenaAstro.com
Dec 19, 2010If you can't find it... find Agena
Pros:Accurate,Great quality,Strong Construction
Cons: Comments:I was in need of a specific application for lens arrangement... and I found Agena had the only available product that would allow me to achieve the optical arrangement I wanted. An excellent product from a great seller. If you need special optical supplies, then I recommend you stop by Agena Products. Thanks, Gary M.
