The Altair Lightwave 80 ED-R F6.25 is a portable ED refractor for imaging and visual use. The F6.25 ED doublet optics feature an Ohara S-FPL53 ED element and Schott glass mating element, delivering high contrast elements with good colour correction.Colour aberrations are almost invisible with well corrected eyepieces, and the 80mm F6.25 ED lens system has a tried and tested track record in the field of astro photography. Adding a rack and pinion focuser, and a high quality baffled CNC machined optical tube, results in a more refined telescope which is a joy to own.Several features make the Altair Lightwave 80mm F6.25 solid choice for imaging or visual use. The dual speed rack and pinion focuser with a 1:10 ratio fine adjustment knob makes accurate focusing easy. That means sharp images at the eyepiece, or on your camera CCD chip (focusing is especially easy in live view mode on a DSLR). 8x steel roller bearings support the focuser tube along its length, making the focuser more rigid than focusers of comparable size, while keeping the overall optical tube as light as possible. A rack n pinion gear improves the lifting power of the focuser, making it similar to a large Crayford, but keeping weight and size down to fulfill the portability requirement. The included aluminium-finish carry case is padded with protective foam, and protects the scope for travel.
Also comes with 1 x 28mm 2″ eyepiece and Baader mount for finder/guide scope (finderscope included)
