How is a Powermate 5x used on a refractor for planetary imaging? Where in the image train does is go? Is 55mm space needed between the Powermate and the camera? My scope is a Zenithstar 103, and the camera is an ASI224mc. Thanks!

I use mine straight after the camera, as far as I know there is no requirement to space it 55mm from the sensor.

You should take a look here:

In summary: The further your chip is away from the Televue, the higher the magnification.
