I've been browsing this forum for the past week, and picked up a lot of info. At least I know what a focal length reducer does. But I still have a lot of queries before taking the plunge.
I've narrowed my choice down to a few.
- SW Pro 80ED APO
- Stellarvue Deluxe SV80ED2
- Meade 6000 80mm ED Triplet APO
Any comments on these. I plan on using it as a prime lens on a Sony A-77 camera (APS-C) sensor size.
And a few things I have been able to find a good solution for..
- How do you get these things on a tripod?
- Is it possible to get focal length reducers for these. Getting down to f/5 something or even f/ 6 would be nice.
From other posts I've read, http://www.cncsupplyinc.com/ seems to have the right adaptor (2"). But how about a polarizer. Anyone use these for their bird photos?
Looks like I'm writing a book here, better quit now.
Thanks
