Product Description

As numerous customers have shown, the ED80's short focal length and superb apochromatic optics make it a great telescope for astrophotography. And now we've coupled it with a state-of-the-art equatorial GoTo mount that provides the stability and precision control needed to capture beautiful deep-sky images. The ED80 sports a multi-coated 80mm objective lens doublet of 600mm focal length (f/7.5). One lens element is crafted from extra-low dispersion ("ED") FPL-53 optical glass from Japan. This high-grade glass greatly reduces the chromatic aberration that causes color fringing around bright objects in standard achromats. The 2" Crayford-style focuser accepts both 2" and 1.25" accessories. Astrophotography and observing are made effortless by the Sirius EQ-G GoTo mount. The included GoTo hand controller contains a database of 42,900 objects.
