Star diagonal for the William Optics Star71
Pros:Lightweight,Accurate,Strong Construction,Quality Lenses,Easy to Use,Compact
Cons: Comments:This is a star diagonal with a single application, namely to provide visual observing when using the William Optics Star71 imaging telescope. To use the star diagonal you must first unscrew the camera adapter from the focussing tube of the Star71 and screw the diagonal on in its place. The diagonal can be rotated and a thumb screw tightened at the correct orientation. With this star diagonal I used a set of X-Cel eyepieces ranging from 2.3mm f/l to 25mm. I had no problems with any eyepieces I tried, and I have to say that the star diagonal performed beautifully, the clearest sharpest viewing I have seen in a small refractor.
