Owners of Dobsonian Newtonians should ensure they have 25 mm of \"backfocus\" available. For Synta and GSO Newtonians, the Four-in-One Adapter (#2458190) is recommended. This adapter can be screwed directly onto the M60 thread at the base plate of the focuser, replacing the standard long 2\" insert, saving up to 40 mm of optical path length.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Glasspathcorrector® 1.7x for Newtonian reflectors reduces the optical path by approximately 80 mm, enabling focus compatibility for many Newtonian telescopes with a binocular viewer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBaader Glasspathcorrector (GK) 1.25x\/1.7x\/2.6x\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Glasspathcorrectors with factors of 1.25x, 1.70x, and 2.60x shorten the optical path length.
