The optics of the ED APO with 80 mm aperture and 600 mm focal length:
With the ED 80, Vixen has launched an interesting and inexpensive alternative to the Japanese EDs. The difference to similar alternatives is clearly the better equipment and a very nice design. The device convinces with an image that is almost free of annoying color errors. The ED tolerates magnifications up to approx. 200 times and also offers a clean and well-defined image.
The advantages and features of the ED80SF:
♦ Very good color correction thanks to multi-coated ED lenses
♦ Despite the compact design, magnifications up to 200x are possible
♦ Extensive scope of delivery
♦ Uncompromising quality - mechanical and optical
