Lunt LS60MB Backfokus

Post by Taipan »

Anybody who use this scoope?’ Where thinking about tha backfokus.
Is it as short as on the LS50? No space for tiltadaptor and so on.
Is it possible to use a powermate/barlow on the Lunt 60MT??

Hi Taipan

I don't have the scope but it will have more back focus than the 50mm setup just because the etalon is larger.

You can always make space for adapters etc if these are needed.

Absolutely see no reason why not.
