Product description

Vixen R200SS

The remarkably fast 200mm (8") f/4 parabolic primary mirror of the Vixen R200SS Newtonian reflector gives extremely sharp images with no chromatic aberration. The use of state-of-the-art coating technology yields the ideal surface for its f/4 primary mirror. The visual observer will enjoy wide views of deep sky objects. Actual groups of nebula or clusters can be viewed at the same time with this instrument.

The telescope's large aperture and compact body make it ideally suited for astrophotography of nebulae, star clusters and comets.

Aluminium vacuum coating system:

Vixen has developed a unique aluminium vacuum coating system which creates extremely precise mirror surfaces. This revolutionary system allows the controlled coating of the primary mirror and so achieves a very high degree of accuracy. This coating is used with both the VC200L, as well as the R200SS.
