This
refractor is packed with great features and excellent optics including our high
quality ED glass. The refractor style 80ED (APO) features a 2" rack and pinion
focuser and has a bracket that can adapt to a photo tripod. ED glass provides
excellent color correction and razor sharp images and virtually eliminates
chromatic aberration usually seen during planetary and lunar viewing. With a
focal length of 600mm (f/7.5) the 80ED refractor is well suited for wide field
astrophotography as well as nature photography. This telescope comes complete
with a 25mm 1.25" eyepiece, erect image diagonal and 6x30 finderscope.
CG-5 Mount — Precision
engineered for stability.
Our
new German Equatorial mount has precision worm gears on both axes for extremely
smooth stability. The key element that makes this system the most stable in its
class is the NEW heavy-duty tripod with larger and more substantial legs that
offer excellent damping characteristics for more stable views. The CG-5 also has
a convenient latitude scale for easier alignment and an optional polar finder
scope for the ultimate in precision alignments.
