The classical prescription for accurate optical and IR polarimetry is the following: a weakly polarizing telescope, a polarization modulator, imager/disperser optics, and a demodulating detector. This list needs to be modified when one is forced to use the Nasmyth focus, as often happens in large modern facilities. An extension of the basic paradigm is presented here and worked out in some detail.
