Digital camera reviews of Meade 6.3 Focal Reducer/Field Flattener

Digital camera Review: Excellent accessory to complement my Telescope
Summary: 5 Stars

I purchase this Focal Reducer in order to take better pictures through my large-apperture Telescope (12 inches apperture). This is a great accesory in order to take better wide-field images of Nebulas, Galaxies, Clusters and the Moon with large Telescopes. I use it with my Canon Digital Rebel and my Meade DSI cameras.

You probably don't need this focal reducer if you have small apperture scopes (most refractors).

Summary of Meade 6.3 Focal Reducer/Field Flattener

Series 4000 f/6.3 Focal Reducer/Field Flattener: An important advancement in high-resolution focal reduction systems, the Meade 4-element, multi-coated f/6.3 Focal Reducer threads on to the rear cell of any Meade LX-Series mirror Focal lens telescope or to other Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope brands (followed by the Off-Axis Guider, shown, or T-Adapter) and reduces the telescope's focal ratio by a factor of 0.63: e.g., f/10 telescopes are converted to f/6.3. Simultaneously, the 41mm-diameter lens system helps to flatten the field, significantly improving edge-of-field corrections. The f/6.3 Focal Reducer enables a reduction of photographic exposure times by about 50%, while producing an actual field diameter of 1.5" at the film plane.
