An old method but it works. Barlows aren’t out of the question just the two I have, a Klee 2.8x an a Bintel 2.5x probably offers to much in mag for the camera. Have ordered a Baader Q-Barlow 2.25/1.3x (cheaper than a Powermate) to play around with. Idea is to take the lens element and attach to the T-piece to get a desired f ratio close to f13 or greater, I hope. The link may help to understand.

As I have a lathe I am going to modify the Bintel 2.5x in to a T-piece just for fun and see how it will perform. Probably best for the ATM thread.
