Santa brought a Canon 400D/XTi for my SV80S. I'm going to order a televue .8x field flattener and next month an IDAS LPS filter. I know I need a t-ring adapter to go from the Canon mount to a t thread. Does then the field flattener thread directly onto the other end of the t-ring or do I need something else? And, does the IDAS LPS filter screw into/onto the scope end of the field flattener just like on an eyepiece? I've looked and read, now I'm confused - a bit 
Thanks
Henry

The reducer will thread directly on to your camera t-adapter. It will act as a 2" nose piece. If you want to use filters, you can thread them into the flattener's barrel.

LLEEGE,
Thanks, that is what I thought but seeing all those adapters started to confuse me and not having all the items in front of me doesn't help either. Thanks again.
