Product Overview
The Reducer Coupling for FSQ-106ED Camera Angle A is a mechanical spacer built to seat the Mewlon CR / FSQ-106EDX4 0.73x Reducer inside the Camera Angle Adjuster on an FSQ-106ED telescope. It bridges the M92 and M72 thread interfaces of the CAA housing, positioning the reducer at the depth needed for infinity focus with Takahashi's standard TCA-4 and T-mount camera adapters.
Who It's For
This is a good match if you run an FSQ-106ED with the Camera Angle Adjuster and want to add the 0.73x reducer to that same imaging train without changing your camera-side adapters.
Key Features & Design
- M92-to-M72 coupling: bridges the reducer's thread to the Camera Angle Adjuster's housing thread.
- Purpose-fit depth: positions the reducer inside the CAA at the spacing needed for infinity focus with standard TCA-4 and T-mount adapters.
- Single-purpose part: adds no optics of its own — it's a mechanical spacer only.
Recommended Uses
Adding the 0.73x reducer to an FSQ-106ED imaging train that already runs through the Camera Angle Adjuster; CCD and DSLR imaging setups using Takahashi's TCA-4 or T-mount camera adapters.
Compatibility and Accessory Notes
Built specifically for the FSQ-106ED's Camera Angle Adjuster and the Mewlon CR / FSQ-106EDX4 0.73x Reducer. It isn't a general-purpose coupling for other Takahashi reducers or camera angle adjusters. See the Takahashi Back Focus Guide for the rest of the FSQ-106ED imaging train's published spacing figures.
Good to Know Before You Order
It's built for one specific combination. It couples the 0.73x reducer to the FSQ-106ED's Camera Angle Adjuster and isn't sized for other reducer or CAA pairings.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is it difficult to set up?
No — it threads between the reducer and the Camera Angle Adjuster housing like any coupling.
What is it best used for?
Fitting the 0.73x reducer inside an FSQ-106ED's Camera Angle Adjuster for CCD or DSLR imaging.
Does it work with other reducers or telescopes?
It's matched specifically to the FSQ-106ED Camera Angle Adjuster and the 0.73x reducer, not a universal coupling.
Do I need other adapters?
Standard TCA-4 or T-mount camera adapters complete the imaging train from this point.
Bottom Line
A purpose-built coupling that seats the 0.73x reducer inside the FSQ-106ED's Camera Angle Adjuster at the correct depth for infinity focus.
