Its definitely the right t ring as it says canon on it!

We shall not cease from exploration
And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time. . . .

It focuses perfectly on the skylux with the diagonal but on the 4.5" I cant focus! The focusing barrel is in as far as it can go!is it to do with tehfocal ratio of the scope? Its an f8! 910mm focal length and114mm lens!
thanks

If I remember rightly, the 4.5 inch is a reflector, I'd bet you're using that diagonal with it, these do not work on newtonian reflectors for the most part. :)

but what a way to go. :)
