2"a / T-2i Zero-length reducing piece (zero optical length)
May I use the 2"a / T-2i reducing piece to connect a 2" / 90° Astro Amici-Prism diagonal in a T2 quick changer system?
Answer rated: 0Even if it mechanically is possible, it will have one big disadvantage: T-2 has 42mm aperture, 2" Is 50mm. Means, you step down the aperture of the prism so that you will experience a vignetted field when viewing with long focal length eyepiecesAnswer by: Baader Web Team (Admin) on Apr 8, 2021 9:18:00 AMRated: 0

2" BDS-SC Baader Diamond Steeltrack® Focuser
I have an ETX-125 (Mak) with a Wegat back. The output port is technically an SCT thread 2-24 (2’’ diameter, UNF 24 thread).
I also own a Diamond Steelrack SC which has a 2’’ 1.0 (metric) thread.
The threads are incompatible despite both being called SCT.
Do you sell an adapter from thread UNF24 to 1.0 ? otherwise what are my options ?
Answer rated: 0The ETX 125 is a MAK (Maksutov Cassegrain) and not an SC (Schmidt Cassegrain). These are different optical and mechanical system. Therefore both have different threads on the rear end - and most accessories that are especially designed for SC do not fit to MAK telescopes. This is the case for our SteelStrack Focusers. The MAK has not enough focus travel in the focusing mechanism to move the focus far enough out to get a sharp image when the SteelTrack is attached. Therefore we do not offer adaptors for attaching the focuser to the MAK - it simply makes no sense, the combination will not work. Unfortunately we do not know about another focuser that works on an ETX MAKAnswer by: Baader Web Team (Admin) on Apr 7, 2021 2:24:00 PMRated: 0

Baader 2" ClickLock eyepiece clamps (from T-2 to 4,1")
I have a BAADER CLICKLOCK for SCT that I would like to convert for an Explore Scientific 80ED APO Refractor. Can I buy separately the adapter for that?
Answer rated: 0Most of the adapters inside of the ClickLocks are not sold seperately, and the ClickLocks bodies are not all the same. But we do have have several SC-adapters, maybe one also fits to your telescope and the the SC-ClickLock: https://www.baader-planetarium.com/en/accessories/adapters-imaging-accessories/2-inch-sc-thread.htmlAnswer by: Baader Web Team (Admin) on Apr 6, 2021 12:44:00 PMRated: 0

Ultrashort 1¼" / T-2 Clamp
If this is attached to the T-2 1C prism diagonal, will the nosepiece of a 1.25" eyepiece touch the prism surface? I'm concerned because the measured nosepiece length is 26mm, while the stated length of this clamp is only 20mm.
Answer rated: -1If you add the depth of the housing, it is 25 mm - then one or two M42/T-2 spacer rings must be used.Answer by: Baader Web Team (Admin) on Apr 7, 2021 9:51:00 AM
