Field Flattener: To image with this telescope, use the SFFX-3 photographic Field Flattener.
Reducer Flattener: This year we are introducing our new dual-fluoro .75X full frame reducer/flattener. This is a dedicated reducer/flattener made specifically for the SVX152T and SVX180T. We are currently polishing the glass for this unit and when it is finished and coated, we will have it field tested. Watch for it by the end of this year.
When you buy these photographic correctors with the telescope, we will include the necessary adapters needed to attach to the focuser you have selected. We will contact you to determine your camera thread size and back focus. We will work with you to get the flattener and reducer/flattener matched to your camera.
