Hi all, I've just received my baader D-ERF and seem to remember the arrow on the side points towards the sun, is that correct?

Thanks mark but unfortunately it's only the D-ERF, the blocking filter is hopefully following on soon.. at least that gives me abit of time to sort the adapters and maybe a heli focuser

when you hold the DERF , look at the reflections, if it has a blue to it , that is the front, if you see a red in the refelection that's the back
