Hello, I have the same setup as you: a MAK 102 telescope and a Canon 600D camera. Unfortunately, I noticed that when using a Barlow lens, a bright spot appears in the center of the frame in my daytime photos. Example: https://psv4.userapi.com/c536132/u546163082/docs/d12/d27e9b2e623a/shutter1.jpg?extra=5A3a7jCM9FgsETp3cEiWMcIRGNbjVs4qcro6TKVj1hnYm1KiHAZoSWs0-kHjoBpope3gFurD7mpKbwFz2Kn7D4oxHqk_TlETrB4iFWx8IGOEdEkzQWJJYS7LyzaR9UdluyomhABOYat7ZJM5Mfe7Q-pK Have you encountered this issue?

Yes, that's correct. I believe it's due to central obstruction and the large scale. I take daytime photos and lunar panoramas without a Barlow lens; I only use it for planets.

How were these photos taken? Without a Barlow lens?

Today I went to the store with a Barlow lens, camera, and telescope. We tried several lenses and telescopes, but the glare is still there. I went to my sister's place and swapped the camera for another of the same brand and model—still getting circular glare spots. Somehow, there's no information about this anywhere?
