Hi Mak-Cas Owners,
I have the newer 6" Intes MK-67 DX and a new Sirius Variable Filter. Instructions recommend using a 2x barlow if one has problems coming to focus. Borrowed a Shorty 2x barlow but still was not able to come to focus. Tried different configurations: 1.focuser, barlow, variable filter, diagonal, eyepiece; 2. focuser, variable filter, barlow, diagonal, eyepiece; 3. focuser, variable filter, diagonal, barlow, eyepiece. None of these configurations worked.
Has any 6" Intes MakCas owner been able to come to focus with the Sirius Variable Filter? If yes, what barlow and configuaration were you using?
Thanks for your comments.
