A real asset for those of us with astigmatism
I was having trouble viewing with my eyeglasses, but without them it was totally pointless. Someone recommended the Tele Vue Dioptrx. I compared my prescription to their options and decided the strongest (3.5) correction was probably best. I'm a...

I bought this 2" Focal reducer to give me more options when operating my camera for DSO imaging. I have not had a chance to use it yet because of the clouds, rain and cold temps up here in New England. It will give me F/5 straight up using my C8...

GSO 2" Photo-Visual Coma Corrector for Newtonian Telescopes

FIRST EXPERIENCE A GREAT ONE!
I purchased several GSO scopes from Agena. Two of the fast scopes, f:6 and f:5 in different apertures, showed a bit of coma, not untypical for fast RFT reflectors regardless of aperture. In the good old days, having owned fast Newtonians in the past,...

Very happy
After a lot of research and reading lots of reviews to compare the Celestron with other brand products that apparently come out of the same factory, I decided to pay a bit more to get the Celestron one. I'm not disappointed. Nice clean optics, g...

Not for Lower Power Eyepieces
I found the GSO .5 reducer to be well made, with good coatings and light throughput. However, while it performed as advertised in mid-focal length eyepieces, it produced significant vignetting on my 24mm and 30mm. The result was a lower magnification...

woke up from a coma (corrector)
i tried another coma corrector, and it actually made coma where there weren't any. In contrast, the Baader Mark III coma corrector worked VERY WELL. I use both a 6" f5 and an 8" f5 orion reflector telescopes, and coma correction made a...
