While you're here, how about checking out the Astronomy Book List ?


Hi all,


This is a stupid question and I am ashamed to ask it...
If I put a f3.3 focal reducer on my 10" f6.3 LX do I get an f3.3 telescope
?
The reason I'm asking is because I'd like to buy a CCD and I need to get
the right resolution. If I use a f3.3 focal reducer with a f6.3 10" LX200 I
will get the perfect resolution for deepsky with a ST5 (7.4 pixel size) and
with a 2 times Barlow I should get perfect resolution for planetary and
lunar imaging ... is this correct ?
What brand focal reducer should I buy?


Thanks,


Maarten
