TS Imaging Star 130mm f / 5 6-Element Flatfield ED-Apo Refractor Telescope for Photography

TS ImagingStar 130 mm f / 5 - 6-element flatfield apo telescope


Light-weight 130 mm apochromate - f / 5,0 with 650 mm focal length - flat image field with built-in 3-element corrector.

♦ FPL53 triplet lens with air gap for a color-pure image

♦ 3-element corrector for very good field correction

♦ M48 and M68 camera connection for a complete screw connection of the camera - guarantees the best possible results

♦ Newly designed 2.5 "telescopic eyepiece extension with high stiffness

♦ Long working distance of 74 mm from the M68 connection thread - there is also enough room to use off-axis guiders and filter wheels, for example




TS Optics Imaging Star 130mm f / 5.0 Flatfield Apo Telescope
IMAGING STAR Apo refractor telescopes from Telescope Service have been developed for the dedicated astrophotograph. Lens and corrector are optimally matched for best results on the axis and in the field. This 130 mm ImagingStar Apo offers a very high light intensity with f / 5.

The Apo offers a very well corrected and illuminated image field with a diameter of 42 mm. Due to the moderate exposure times, the noise can be kept very low, which benefits especially owners of uncooled DSLR cameras. The apo is, of course, also suitable for CCD cameras.

The advantages and product features of the TS Imaging Star 130 mm Apos:

♦ 130mm opening - light f / 5
♦ triplet lens with FPL-53 from Ohara (Japan) for an image free of color aberrations
♦ Newly designed 2.5 "gear extension with 1: 10 mounting for direct screwing of the camera
♦ Correctly corrected and illuminated image field with a diameter of 42 mm
♦ 360 ° rotation for optimal positioning of the object on the chip
♦ CNC pipe clamps for optimum attachment
♦ Sturdy aluminum case for transport and storage with space for accessories
♦ Insertable dew cap - overall length for transport only 550 mm

Connecting the camera to the telescope:

The camera is connected using the M48x0.75 thread or the M68 thread. The distance from the M48 thread to the camera sensor is exactly 53 mm. The distance from the M68 thread to the camera sensor is 74 mm. So you have enough space for individual adaptations and for all commercial cameras.

Visual observation with ImagingStar Apo:

Due to the relatively short distance from the corrector to the focus, the APO is not suitable for use with normal 1.25 "or 2" cite mirrors. Nevertheless, the Apo also offers visually impressive performance thanks to the large corrected image field. We offer the observers a short adapter flange with a zenith mirror which is clamped directly to the extension, instead of the M48 adaptation (TSIS-ZS1).

The 2.5 "
The newly designed 2-5 "R & P eyepiece lens holds even heavy cameras without tilting, which has been specially designed for the use of the camera, with the help of a toothed rack with no shifting, the knurled screw at the base blocks the adjustment You can also hold the position of the pull-out tube by means of a knurled screw on the upper side.

The eyepiece pullout takes the 3-element corrector and has an M68x1 Zeiss level external thread on the camera side. On this thread also the reduction is attached to M48x0,75.
