FTF2015 focus adapter for Meade SCT with large screw thread | Feather Touch by Starlight

With high magnification or using a camera, focusing through the main mirror of a Meade SCT is often a time-consuming process, because the image shifts slightly with every rotation. This FTF2015 adapter for the Meade with the large threaded connection makes it possible to attach a Feather Touch FTF2015 from Starlight Instruments to the back of the telescope. You then fine-tune the mirror, and the precise work is done with the focus mechanism.

The adapter is intended for Meade catadioptric telescopes With the large-size screw thread. Meade uses a small or large size per model, so measure the connection at the back before ordering.

Also check that your focus is really an FTF2015, because this adapter is made for that. If you want to know what you can expect on planets with such a setup, read view our article about Jupiter.
