Hi Grztus
I am planning to spend some money on a barlow lens...(more money spent :roll: ) and I was wondering how you go about attaching your camera to a barlow lens, as I cant seem to do it with my current one. I am assuming that you are using a 2" Barlow lens?

Thanks

I had a problem with attaching it, becosue theres a clamping ring at the end of my barlow so the standard T-ring is unusefulness. I have called to "astrokrak" an astro shop in Krakow and fortunately they had a special reduction from this Soligor Barlow to M42 (cost about 50PLN => 10-15 EUR). All I nedded was M42/EOS reduction, but I have it in my bag ;-)
