Lacerta 72/432 ED-APO 72mm 432mm f / 6 FPL-53 with stable 2-inch octo focuser
The LACERTA 72mm F / 6 FPL-53 ED-APO (manufactured with the 72mm MEGREZ lens) closes the gap between the inexpensive ED doublets and the more expensive and heavier triplet apochromats. Astrofotographers who attach importance to a particularly colorless image are best served with this APO. For the two-lens ED lens, the best possible glass combination was chosen, which is currently available for an ED-Doublet (FPL53 with NBM51 partner glass). In the field of sky observation, the travel-ready compact device offers a very good performance - and harmonises very well with different image field lenses and reducers. Ask us!
The Lacerta 72mm Apochromat fulfills high requirements also for nature observers: color purity and color fastness are a matter of course, both visually and photographically. The high-quality optical system paired with the new Octo eyepiece extension (guided on 8 ball bearings) promises success in demanding astrophotography. Even heavy cameras are held with good stability, the focus is very sensitive with the 1:10 microfokuser.
The LACERTA 72mm ED-APO has a solid Vixen dovetail mounting foot (prism rail) with integrated 1/4 "photoelectric connector, which allows you to attach the unit to any good photo-static.
The foot can also be turned around for better balance.
