This colour-pure refractor (FPL-53 lens) is ideal for photographing extended celestial objects using cameras with large sensors (e.g. DSLRs). This includes full-frame SLR cameras with sensors larger than the APS-C format. Thanks to the long focuser travel of 95 mm, this lens telescope can also be used for visual observation.
The hybrid drive focuser with 1:11 fine drive ensures the necessary precision when focusing. The CNC-milled tube clamps from the PLUS system not only look high-quality and elegant, they also provide the necessary mechanical stability while protecting the tube.
Your advantages at a glance:
- Aluminium tube with retractable dew shield
- Focuser with 1:11 fine drive
- Tube clamps matching the outstanding PLUS system
- Sturdy transport case with padding
OnAxisLock is the accessories locking system that, compared to those using normal screw, offers a greater clamping force, avoiding any possible flexure (so it's perfect for astrophotography), it does not damage the connected accessory and it perfectly keeps the optical axis of the telescope.
All this thanks to a new locking device with double ring: just rotate manually the appropriate outer ring (designed to allow an easy grip, even with gloves) and you will get a perfect closure!
