Quote: Ethos Paracorr Settings: TeleVue's recommended settings are incorrect, according to both my eye and the two excellent calculators on this thread. <snip> My recommendations: Use the 13 Ethos as a 2" and use setting 1. Use the 8 Ethos as a 1.25" and use setting 1 and pull the eyepiece out about 2mm. This will require a LOT of infocusing.
Wow thats quite a statement... Let's see : The TV website recommends the #1 setting for the 13 Ethos also, so how are we incorrect there ?
As for the 8 mm: Your's & our settings are 12 mm apart, which 1.25 adapter are you using on the 8 mm Ethos ? We recommend the "lower" adapter that comes with the Paracorr.
