Takahashi offers a prism diagonal, of very high optical quality and with a top-of-the-range finish, which will optimise the performance of your lens. The mechanical output is 1.25" (31.75 mm) female barrel, with a clamp ring.
The new TS Photoline 150 mm f/8 Apo convinces with its high optical performance, neat chromatic correction and very good mechanics - with large 3.7" focuser for astrophotography with large sensors
Aperture 150 mm / focal length 1200 mm / focal ratio f/8
Very good chromatic correction due to color-pure imaging by "Extra-Low-Dispersion" FPL53 APO element from Ohara (Japan) and lanthanum glass element
Fast cooling due to the 2-element objective design
With only 9.5 kg the telescope is still transportable and can be carried by mounts from EQ6 upwards
3.7" focuser with 360° rotation - rack and pinion - one of the best focusers in its class
Multi-coated objective and inner baffles for optimal contrast
M92x1 and M68x1 female threads are available for screw adaptions - illumination up to full frame format is given
Working distance 130 mm from the 2" receptacle or 230 mm without extension between focuser and tube
Slide-in dew shield, CNC tube rings, finder shoe, dovetail bar and carrying handle are included in the scope of delivery
Suitable correctors and focal length reducers for astrophotography are available
Each apo is checked and optimally adjusted on the optical bench at Teleskop-Service before shipment. Upon request, we will send an optics test (stellar imaging focal, extrafocal, intrafocal and Ronchi) with it.
