TS 62mm travel refractor, spotting scope and telephoto lens
With the TSR625Q we offer you one of the most versatile instruments for mobile use. The refractor is manufactured to a very high quality and has a 4-element system. This not only achieves improved color correction, but also levels the image field for photography. The sharpness is retained right to the edge.

The refractor is supplied with a universal photo tripod connection plate with two 1/4" internal threads. This means you can use all common photo tripods. With suitable prism rails, you can also connect to astronomical mounts with quick couplings. The refractor is ideal for observation and for Photography, in just a few minutes the telescope becomes a long-focal telephoto lens with a focal length of 520 mm.

The 1.25" focuser has ball bearings and has a locking screw. This is particularly useful for astrophotography in order to maintain the focus position. The focus is adjusted sensitively and without play. A special feature is the generous working distance of 70-125 mm from the 1.25" receptacle. This allows you to easily use all common accessories for photography and observation

The TS625Q for observation
The telescope is well suited for astronomical observation, but also for daytime observation as a spotting scope. The refractor offers a bright and high-contrast image thanks to the multi-coating. You can use star diagonals for astronomy or amici prisms for daytime observation. This will give you an upright and true-to-side image.

The TS625Q for photography
The telescope is also a good telephoto lens with a focal length of 520 mm and an aperture ratio of f/8.4. The correction and illumination is ideal for cameras with APS-C sensors or smaller. With full frame cameras you will see slight shadowing at the edge. A T2 thread is already available on the camera side. To connect the camera, you only need the appropriate T2 ring and the 20mm T2 extension # TST2V20 so that you can focus easily.

The TS625Q for astrophotography
The compact refractor can also be used well for astrophotography. Thanks to the internal 2-element correction system, the stars are sharp and round right up to the edge of the image field. To make focusing easier, we recommend the T2 extension # TST2V20 for cameras with a 55 mm flange distance.

At the same time, the refractor is of course a very good guide telescope for telescopes with an aperture of up to 10". We recommend using a 1.25" diagonal mirror for easy focusing. This means you can easily use all common autoguiders and cameras with an autoguiding connection.
