More about the series ZenithStar...
With an aperture of 126 millimetres, the Z126 is the largest model in the very popular ZenithStar series. The synthetic fluorite FPL53 duplet with air gap sits in a precision CNC-machined lens cell and ensures the sharp, high-contrast images that are so typical of the ZenithStar series apochromats.
With the optional flattener, the corrected image field is 43 millimetres in diameter, sufficient for illuminating a full-frame DSLR – and that with a fast aperture ratio of f/6.2.
The Zenithstar 126 Apo comes with a newly developed 3.3" R&P focuser. This has a sufficiently high load capacity for all photographic accessories, can be rotated 360° and is naturally equipped with a reduction gear. Every astrophotographer knows how important a good focuser is. The Z126's focuser meets these requirements.
The Z126 Apo comes with a wide prism rail in accordance with the Losmandy standard. This provides greater stability compared to the narrower Vixen rail.
The ZenithStar 126 is a dream telescope for both visual and astrophotographic use. Expand it with the extensive range of accessories from William Optics to suit your needs!
A further special feature of the new William Optics apochromats is the specially calculated Bahtinov focus mask:
These new focus masks made from optical acrylic glass provide 92% transparency.
The imprinted pattern provides a diffraction structure which is around three times brighter than classic metal masks. The acrylic glass masks therefore produce a clearer diffraction pattern and enable focusing with the help of fainter stars.
