Baader Glasspathcorrector for binoviewers
The corrector is more than just a simple barlow lens that compensates for part of the optical path of the binoviewer. First of all, the corrector corrects the color fringes created by the prisms of the binoviewer. Contrast and sharpness of the image increase.
Calculation of the shortening factor:
The corrector is installed directly in front of the binoviewer. If the corrector is moved further away from the binoviewer, the magnification effect and path compensation increase.
♦ GWK 1,25x: The optical path of the binoviewer is shortened by 18 mm.
♦ GWK 1,7x: The optical path of the binoviewer is shortened by 41 mm.
♦ GWK 2,6x: The optical path of the binoviewer is shortened by 84 mm.
Adaptation to the telescope:
Adaptation to the binoviewer is simple. The corrector is simply clamped between the T2 female thread and the T2 male thread. The adapter is automatically centered. For the connection to 1.25" or 2" we recommend suitable Baader adapters which are linked under the accessory recommendations.
Further application possibilities:
The correctors are not only suitable for the Baader Maxbright binoviewers. Also for other binoviewers or adapters, prisms ... the correctors can be used. Whenever you cannot reach the point of focus with a new accessory, the Baader Glass Path Corrector can be the saving solution.
