Vixen AX103S Refractor ED Telescope Set
We introduce this high-quality and functional AX103S Refractor ED Telescope Set by Vixen Optics. If you're looking for an optic for astronomy and astrophotography, This is it! It is made specifically for photography and offers stunning visual performance, especially for observing the moon and the planets. It features a rear-mounted field-flattener lens and triplet ED object lens with a fully multi-coated 3-lens apochromatic extra-low dispersion (ED) glass lens system that corrects spherical and chromatic aberrations.
An optional focal reducer provides fast results for astrophotographers because of the 1:5.6 ratio that reduces the aperture and removes the blue-tinted effect for accurate high contrast color transmission. A rear field corrector lens corrects astigmatism and distortion at the edges of the lens, so views remain a sharp image across the entire field of view. You can attach a 2" eyepiece and a camera adapter with the 60 mm ring on the focuser.
They are used for multiple astrophotography techniques, including prime-focus, afocal imaging, or eyepiece projection. It comes with Tube clamps, a carry handle, an Illuminated 7x50 viewfinder telescope, and a folding mirror. It's guaranteed to deliver a lifetime of outstanding performance!
