Vixen ED115S - aperture 115mm / focal length 890mm - tube with optics

Vixen ED115S - aperture 115mm / focal length 890mm - tube with optics - 5866 ... a perfect APO with color-pure image - for transportable astronomy on a high level - the flagship of Vixen

Vixen ED 115S
(Flip Mirror is optional accessory)

If a two-lens lens with special glasses in Japan is calculated and also produced, then comes out a quality that was not expected. Vixen rightly calls this APO the worthy successor to Fluorite apo.

Breathtaking sharpness and rich detail is a guarantee in every good, starry night. Not only on planets you will perceive the finest color nuances, but also achieve excellent results in the Deeb-Sky range - regardless of whether it is purely visual or photographic.

Vixen himself describes the image of the apochromatic refractor as absolutely color pure and we can confirm this description. The refractor is a real high end device, offering excellent performance in every field of astronomy. We have seen similar pictures so far only from Russian quality optics.

Summary observations:

The focuser is not a simple 2 "extension, the free inside diameter is much larger - over 60mm !! This guarantees optimal illumination to the edge.With our 2" kit (see "recommended accessories") you can create a celestial area of ​​about 2.7 Oversee, that is more than 5 times the size of the full moon. And that with needle-sharp stars to the edge.
Astrophotography:

A prime discipline for the ED 115 .. there are a few valid reasons why the ED 115 is clearly superior to other devices:

- Okularauszug with about 60mm free opening - no shading by tightly sized 2 "tubes

- A perfectly working flattener for the ED, which is screwed directly to the M60 thread of the pullout and reduces the focal length to 596mm - with bright f / 5,2!

- A unique solution - an Off Axis Guider that allows tracking and recording at the same time. The required distances from the Flattener are maintained.

This makes the solution really compact - no separate guide tube is needed anymore!
