No eyepiece used, camers atachted direct to the scope,

450d and 6" scope, I think a focal reducer would let me get the whole moon

in the frame, I think!!

Probably would but you'd nearly be better off
buying the 70mm refractor in Lidl.

I have to say though I have a focal reducer on
the way for my ETX125 OTA.
Although the shots through the Skylux are fine
the sheer optical quality of the ETX
ment it was a no brainer to pay the 40 or so bucks
to get the whole moon in the shot.

Depends on the scope you have I suppose.
