EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC ED APO 80mm f / 6 FCD-1 Alu 2 "R & P Focuser
The EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC tri-lobed ED special glass apochromats offer everything that makes the amateur astronomer's heart beat faster - and at a modest price. The three-column construction with Hoya FCD01-ED special glass and two air gaps enables a correction that is clearly visible above the level of the two-lingual ED apos that are otherwise available in this price range.

A computational polystrehl of more than 0.9 speaks a very clear language compared to the possible with two lenses 0,8x. This superior imaging performance combined with solid mechanics results in a package that leaves nothing to be desired. In addition, a Bildfeldebner is available as an optional accessory for photography - so the device can also be fully photographically used.

The tube length has been optimized so that accessories with critical focus position can also be used. All EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC ED Apochromats feature an air-gap triplet lens and Hoya "FCD-1 Special Glass for superior visual and photographic performance.
