Example Configuration for Baader FlipMirror II
If you use the telescope both photographically and visually, working with a flip mirror
such as the Baader FlipMirror II star diagonal

becomes particularly
convenient. With a flick of the wrist, you can switch between eyepiece and camera.
The flip mirror is mounted behind the H-alpha filter via the T-2 thread. An eyepiece
can be brought into the same focus position as the camera sensor with the Baader
Focusing Eyepiece Holder 1¼" / T-2

, so that it is not necessary to refocus
when looking through the eyepiece. The working distance for the camera sensor at the
straight port and for the field diaphragm of the eyepiece at the top port is identical in
each case.
With the T-2 quick-release system

, the flip mirror or camera can be
rotated into a convenient position, even when the H-alpha filter is screwed tightly onto
the telescope.
The SunDancer II with integrated TZ-3S has an ideal working distance of 65 mm,
the folding mirror can be screwed directly onto the SunDancer unit. The 2" Research
Grade TZ-3
# 2459257
has a working distance of 250 mm, here we recommend additi-
onally two pieces
