Pretty exact. Try using Newt
(http://www.users.qwest.net/~dalekeller/atm/newtonians/newtsoft/newtsoft.htm)
to compute the baffles or the refractor baffle page
http://www.berfield.com/baffles.html for a description of how to do it
geometrically (a reflector baffling situation is similar, except you have to
consider light to the primary as well as the focuser). I thought I had a link
to a reflector baffle page, but I don't see it now - anybody got one?
