| Re: Scope From Camera Lens

: I was wondering if it would be possible to make a refractor from a high quality camera telephoto lens. Any suggestions appreciated. Last week I managed to pick up a second-hand 500mm f/8 Mirror Lens from a camera shop for 39 UKpounds (about $55). It's only about 4" long, so a very compact telescope is a distinct possibility. I'm making the scope now, I'll let you know how it goes. |
