Celestron astromaster refractor focuses problem?


Recommended Posts

Hi all! I’ve been having a thing with my astromaster 70 which has been bugging me recently. When I look down the focuser , the objective isn’t centered in the middle of the focuser. In other words, part of the rim of the objective can’t be seen(pictures coming later). Will this affect the views through the scope? Thanks.

First image is through the focuser without any diagonals. The second is with a Nexstar SE diagonal and the third with the Astromaster diagonal. Problem seems to be a bit worse with the Nexstar se diagonal. It seems to me that the focuser isn’t angled properly to the objective.
