Product works!
Pros:Works On My 2" Diagonal,Works On My 2" Williams
Cons:Use A Spacer For A Fit
Comments:I have SCT telescopes and recently obtained a large refractor with a 2" focuser. This product allows to me to use all my SCT accessories without out my buying additional diagonals, etc.
Bottom Line: Would you recommend this item? Yes
I needed to apply a spacer to the adapter to allow a tight fit to the diagonal.This review was provided courtesy of AgenaAstro.com

Cons:A little bit too short

Bottom Line: Would you recommend this item? Yes

May 13, 2010A useful adapter
Pros:Strong Construction,Compact
Cons:Not long enough
Comments:The adapter is made of metal and is all black inside and out. It has threads for 2" filters and it's not heavy at all. I noticed a couple of issues with it.
Bottom Line: Would you recommend this item? Yes
First, it won't work well in focusers or visual backs with compression rings; the visual axis of the light will be bend because the compression ring won't keep this adapter straight. If the focuser or visual back has screws there is no problem with it. If the focuser has 3 screws it's even better.
Second, the threaded part of the adapter (not the filter side) is not very long for every accessory to work. Two Meade 2" diagonals won't work with it: the 07205 and the 07222. The adapter is short and the diagonals do not attach firmly. It needs to be extended by 2mm to work perfectly. Some type of ring introduced between the adapter and the diagonals would fix the problem.
The adapter works well with SCT focal reducers, SCT-type nebular filters and other similar accessories. It is very useful in various setups you may want to work with.This review was provided courtesy of AgenaAstro.com
May 1, 2010Very handy accessory
Pros:Strong Construction,Compact
