Suitable FR for a Mead ACF

[Fay]

Hi,

does anyone know of a suitable FR for a Meade, 8" F10, ACF scope.

Thanks

Optec do one, Optec Lepus, very pricey, Ian King deals with them, don't know if he supplies the FR though.

thanks for that Dave, very helpful. It was suggested by Teleskop  Service, as I had enquired if a AP ccd67 would be ok, but they said no.

Check the size of the corrected circle on the Lepus, Fay. From memory it was quite small on the one for the Edge, which may be the same one. I don't know.

I think Per had an Edge one Fay, PM him perhaps.

This is strange because it seems to work well with the bigger ACF (12"). Some people who have both types of scopes prefer this combination over a GSO RC / CCDT67 combo.
