GSO 6 "Imaging Newton 150mm aperture f / 4 - 2" MONORAIL

GSO 6 "Imaging Newton 150mm aperture f / 4 - 2" MONORAIL
6 "f / 4 Imaging Newton Telescope - for large field observation and astrophotography
... improved optics and mechanics - high luminous intensity and good illumination & an ideal travel telescope

TS 150mm f4 imaging Newton:

The smallest TS Imaging Newton convinces with an optical performance and features that are only used by larger Newton telescopes. The powerful Newton telescope is optimized for field observations and of course astrophotography. The illumination, image brightness and contrast of the diffraction-limited optics are convincing and make you want to take the compact telescope with you even when traveling.

The telescope is manufactured by GSO for Telescope Service in compliance with our high quality specifications.

The Benefits of TS 6 "f / 4 Imaging Newton's:

- Diffraction-limited high-intensity mirror optics - f / 4 for short exposure times
- brighter image due to forced reflectivity of the mirrors - 94%
- very good illumination due to optimized catch mirror with 63mm diameter
- very robust mechanism, which does not twist even with heavy loading by cameras
- improved MONORAIL focuser with reduction - higher rigidity than Crayford focuser
- ideal for field observations and astrophotography
- Clamps with flat support plate on two sides for easy installation of accessories
- compact for travel - tube length only 58cm - weight only 5,3kg with clamps

Good illumination for fulfilling overview observations:

The tube is not too tight with 173mm inner diameter and also the catch mirror with 63mm diameter (small axis) provides sufficient illumination. So you can also use 2 "eyepieces with large field stop for ultimate overview observations, without fear of darkening at the edge.You can also focus with extreme eyepieces.A generous back focus even the use of binocular approaches with moderate glass path compensation is possible.

Astrophotography with the TS 6 "f / 4 Imaging Newton:

The compact telescope is a specialist in astrophotography without compromise. The tube is particularly stiff and the MONORAIL focuser does not give in even with heavy cameras. The back focus is sized so that you can easily come into focus with SLR cameras. The secondary mirror is dimensioned extra large in order to optimally illuminate even larger sensors.

Of course, the fast f / 4 optics needs a good coma corrector. The TS Koma corrector gives you a good sharpness over the entire field. It also has a better illumination through the M48 thread connection, than correctors with T2 connection (see accessory recommendations).

The 2 "MONORAIL focuser:

TS MONORAIL focuser
The MONORAIL focuser is a further development of the Crayford excerpts. The main advantage is a higher rigidity because instead of small ball bearings that can yield, the storage is done via a sturdy stainless steel rail.

- better stiffness than typical Crayford extracts
- no susceptibility to tilting during clamping
- Adjustment of friction by knurled screw on the base
- Practical clamping with large knurled screw
- Brass ring clamp - 2 "clamping by two screws - no more tilting
- Practical 1:10 reduction for astrophotography
