Works great to achieve focus for astrophotography

Works great to achieve focus for astrophotography. Simple to use. Fits my Orion 8" Newtonian Astrograph perfectly; viewing focus on a Canon t3i 600d.

Solid construction

I had one of these for my 5 inch SCT, and this was equally built as well. I like a thick plastic product because it is built to last unlike a DIY type mask. I would recommend these to anyone

Farpoint FP402 Bahtinov Focus Mask

I used it on my 6 inch Astro Tech RC Astrograph. Really worked well on a bright star. Very important to also do another check on a dimmer star for better focus.
