The most dificult part was getting the camera close enough to the reducer so that I could still achieve in-focus. I did it with about 3mm of focus travel left and that gives me the full disk using up nearly the full frame with enough room to show large prominences. I only managed to get it working because I hapenned to have a very narrow profile 2"-1.25 adaptor. Most of the standard ones are a bit deeper and that resulted in the ccd being just that bit more further away and not being able to acheive focus. I fitted a 2 in tube to the blocking filter, slide the reducer inside the tube, then locked it in place with a nrrow profile 2 "-1.25 eyepiece adaptor.
