The Photoline Apo 102/714 mm offers color-pure images thanks to FPL53 and lanthanum special glass – ideal for astrophotography thanks to its 2.5" focuser.
♦ Aperture 102 mm / Focal length 714 mm / Focal ratio f/7
♦ Adjustable doublet lens in a temperature-compensated mount
♦ Color-pure images thanks to the "Extra-Low Dispersion" FPL53 apo element from Ohara (Japan) and a lanthanum element – this allows for better color correction than comparable apo lenses with doublet lenses.
♦ Shorter cooling time than triplet lenses, allowing for faster operation.
♦ Internal apertures for high-contrast images.
♦ One of the best 2.5" focusers in its class with 360° rotation, ball bearings, rack-and-pinion adjustment, micro-reduction, and motorized focus. Can be retrofitted
♦ M68x1 female thread, 2" and 1.25" push-in connectors are available
♦ CNC tube clamps and GP-style dovetail bar are included
♦ The dew shield can be retracted for transport. The transport length is only 60 centimeters.
