GSO 2" Crayford Focuser for Refractors - Dual Speed (with 96.6mm Telescope Adapter)
5.0
Good upgrade.
Bought this to put on a ST120F5, the stock R&P was fine however as its rather course and hitting the sweet spot is fiddly, a good upgrade, too bad the Canadian dollar is worth a lot less than the US one however I consider it money well spent.

great upgrade to the standard Celestron focuser
This is a major improvement to the standard Celestron focuser on the Nexstar 8SE. Gives fine controlled focus and install easily. Allows a very light touch with the fingers to focus clearly without causing too much shake.

Satisfied as usual
I've invested heavily in Baader diagonals, click-locks, visual backs and T-thread components and have yet to be disappointed. This compression ring is no different. Excellent design and execution.

High quality accessories
Being a devoted Tele Vue customer, I was skeptical of Blue Fireball as a manufacturer until I saw that their eyepiece extension tubes contained brass compression rings. That, plus positive experiences reported on Cloudy Nights, convinced me to try th...

Makes a great all sky camera
Renders the milky way in 6 seconds. The only quibble I have is that the USB receptacle is on the side.

Good item for focusing
This item is good at fine tune the focus, but it will increase the length of C8-A OTA and now I cannot put the OTA in vertical position(before It can)

met the specs exactly!
The important part of this purchase was that the focuser provide increased back focus for NV use with an ST120 and the focuser, by matching the dimensions in Agena's description, did that very well.

This is not actually an 8" mirror, its 200mm and the actual diameter is 7-13/16" with a 7-11/16 reflective surface and 1-1/16" thickness. The focal length is 1200mm which is 47.25 inches. I had to move the mirror cell 3/4" closer ...

Bahtinov focus masks
These are as good a focusing aid as I have seen. You do need to get an empty filter ring to mount them in.

I use it with my Fujifilm Finepix S5600. I experience some focusing difficulties but it's not related to this ring but my camera. Ring does it's job very well.
