Added new pic to show green multi coating of the internal prism. ( this is not a mirror prism. I find a slightly better contrast with the images seen through a prism diagonal like a tak prism diagonal)

Yes, it can also be used for refractors, It is not an erect image diagonal,

The visual back will make it treadable to a sct, the visual back is an additional item, can be detachable from the diagonal.

Sorry, sorry, did not meant to mislead, the 1.25" visual back is also $35, Got confused when i priced them in posting. :(
Visual back lets you connect 1.25 eyepieces to SCT for straight collimation.

both for $70 only.

Can be sold seperately.
