Product description

More about the series SD-Apo...

The Vixen AP 81/625 optics: This double-lens apochromat impresses with its absolutely pure colour optics, which outshine many comparable optics. With a focal length of 625 mm, this instrument is an ideal compromise between visual and astrophotographic applications.

The SD special glass FPL53 from Ohara, Japan, ensures a clear and sharp image. The special lens material suppresses chromatic aberration, a colour defect inherent in all refracting telescopes.

This new version of the Vixen SD81SII does not use spacer plates in the objective, which results in significantly better image quality than the older version, especially with bright stars. This means that there are no longer any spikes on the stars in photographs, which were otherwise caused by the spacer plates.

You will be amazed when you look at the moon or the brighter planets and see the lunar craters in sharp focus and with extremely high contrast. Observe the ringed planet Saturn or the cloud bands on Jupiter.

But of course, brighter deep sky objects such as the Orion Nebula or the Andromeda Galaxy can also be observed impressively.

In combination with the new optional SD Reducer HD Kit or SD Flattener HD, this refractor provides illumination with a 44 mm image circle for full-frame SLR cameras.
