What reducer are you using? I use an older F6.3 Celestron reducer that is pretty darn good. I was imaging last night for the first time in years (been using small Newts/refractors) with the 12" LX200 classic as well and had a hard time getting it focused. I think it is pretty obvious I need to ad a fine focuser like a GSO/WO etc. Jason -------------------- Jason Discovery 12.5" F5 PDHQ GSO 6" F5 Newt.
