Will this work with 2" Focuser. I do have the 2" to 1.25" Inch adapter.

I don't know. I suspect it might, but only if you can back the focuser out far enough to allow you to see all the way out to the edge of the primary mirror. If it were me I would just buy a 2" collimator, these things are cheap.

I'm unsure; this tool is primarily designed for a NON schmidt-cassegrain telescopes; read online to see what they are. So far it has not worked out well for me. So for now I'd recommend the traditional method using a star OR artificial star and following the instructions you can find online for best results.

I've only used it on my small portable dobson. So i haven't been able to test that. But i can tell you that it fits that 1.25" very well so if you have an adapter that centers and aligns well then i don't see why it would not work.

It'll work just fine, it's important to have your mirror accurately center-spotted to use this easily and effectively. Many mirrors in inexpensive scopes either aren't center-spotted at all, or are done a bit sloppily, with spots several mm from true center. To find true center trace your mirror on paper, fold into quarters and nip a very small amount off the resulting tip, that will give you a tiny hole in the exact center. Good luck, learn to collimate well, it really makes your views much, much better and it is super quick and easy to check or adjust before each session once you have it down.

As long as the collimation tool fits snugly in the focuser adapter you should be fine. If there's any "slop" at all your alignment might be out.

It depends if that particular scope has a 1.25 inch focuser barrel. It should be listed in the specs of the scope. These eyepieces are 1.25 inch and should work with just about any scope that supports them. Otherwise they do sell adapters, though I'm not sure how easy it would be to find a two inch barrel to 1.25 inch barre.

"Yes", the rack ships with a two inch adapter so it will work in a 2inch receiver. If you have a 1.25 receiver, you won't need the adapter. Hope this helps.

I have a 2" receiver & it works fine with that. I did order some adaptors for my set up, but can't remember for sure if they have a 1&1/4" adaptor, but I think they do. I would suggest you go to their website & see if they have what you need.

it hards to find the adapters and u need 2 of them in order to fit my 50mm lens. i cant use it 'til now. i'm thinking to return its. but dont know Amazon let me (it've been over 3 months)
1875332
Yes it will... I have the basic 300mm which focuses at a little over 5 feet.. with this attachment I can focus at a little over 3 feet...

I do not have the 1.2 I do have a 50mm 1.8 and a 135mm 2.8 and I use this adapter with a T4i and the quality is amazing. The FD lenses were made really well. The only thing with a 1.2 the depth of field is so shallow you are likely going to blur out half of your subject. You may not want to shoot that lens wide open. However if you do I am sure the photos will look amazing. I hope this helps you out.

I imagine it will work fine, but you may need to purchase an adapter so it will fit the threads on the lens.

This should work on any 2.8 or less. Anything greater and it will work only with manual focus.

After reading the specs on this website, it appears that you will be able to use the 2 inch eyepieces with this scope. This kit comes with the 2 inch diagonal. If this can attach to your scope, it should work just fine. I do not have your model, but I do feel a little jealous. :) Best wishes. http://www.telescopes.com/telescopes/catadioptric-telescopes/celestron8inchcpctelescopetubeandmountwithtripod.cfm

Yes it will work. All that is important is the diameter of the eyepieces. They are either 1.25" like with this accessory kit, or 2". Also look at reviews for other kits as quality varies. The eyepieces in this kit are not particularly amazing. Find a friend with other eyepiece brands or designs and see how well they compare. I would suggest buying two really good eyepieces than a bunch of cheap ones.

Yes it will work. I have the 1.25 receiver and use the 2" adapter. My car is a hatchback so it is easier to access the rear area.

It should work fine. No you do not need an adapter, the macro lens filters screw in just like any other lens filer. I've had good results with them. The set comes in different magnifications. (2x 4x 10 etc.) You have to focus manually if you use them. My lens, like yours, is a 35-70 cannon lens. I am shooting with a Rebel camera. I am a Hobbyist.

I am using this adapter on an old orange tube Celestron 90 and it works. As far as the lens goes I can not help you on that other than you just added a couple of inches to the focus tube. The larger aperture lens I have worked fine, the smaller ones have not. The same has held true for the brand. Celestron lens have worked better than my Meade ones. The last problem is the actual focusing of the scope, with some of the lens the focuser is at its limit and I can not go any further and I have an out of focus image. So the answer is that the adapter works, but there are limitations.

Ya should be in the description about fitting 2". Comes with spacer plates and bolt pin for 2" use. Its not a separate big adapter, just 2 angled steel plates and a bolt/nut. But 2" is bolt on not standard pin with clip. If u want tool less install/removal better to buy short extension adapter.

i've found 1 1/2" is the "best". That close, always manual focus if possible.

no for a 2" but i agreed with the other post, if you can get an adaptor it would work great.
