FS60C 2" AdapterPosted By James Witt |
Hi,
I have never tried putting one on mine but you can read this if you want. I have the 1/12th wave Tak 2" Tak diagonal (TK-TSD0001) for my FSQ but I never bought the so called Novoselsky adapter to allow it to work with the FS-60C (as in the article):

I also read that a 2X barlow with the FS60 is better than the extender lens made by Tak which must be screwed onto the focuser each time its used. A Vixen "T" barlow - which cost about 1/8 as much as the Takahashi FS60 extender is supposed to work great. I haven't tried this as I have the extender for my FSQ already.
Doing a quick search, this is the only link I could find on the Vixen T-Thread barlow:
