Received wisdom is: get a triplet apo with the best quality glass. So, with the clock ticking, and no chance of getting to use a frac otherwise, if my observing experience was to be a bit more complete I needed to buy one. I can wheel it out of the barn in 30 seconds whenever there's a cloud break (not as frequent as you might think in this part of France.). I have an 8" Dob, 6" SW Newt on an EQ3-2 mount and a 4" Celestron 4se Mak.
I have squandered my pension in various ways in pursuit of this pastime: judiciously, foolishly, new, second-hand and been conned out of £1300 by a bogus advertisement for a Meade last autumn. So all my learning has come from reading books, watching YouTube demonstrations and various forums principally SGL. I have no old friends with an interest in astronomy and though I spend half the year in SW France (pretty well all my observing time) I know of nobody within 50 miles who owns a telescope. I'm a bit new to this stargazing lark, only taking it up about three years ago at the age of 75. So, that's the retailer's blurb translated from the German. This is not the case for the Photoline 80 mm f/6 apo." Here, savings were often made in the wrong place.
The fast focal ratio of f/6 not only keeps the refractor very short, it also provides short exposure times for astrophotography.īest mechanics ensure an excellent image quality over years and success in astrophotographyĮven the best optics can be used successfully only if the mechanics is right. It is one of the best and fastest 80 mm apos we have seen. Under the lead management of Teleskop Service, this high-quality Photoline Triplet APO with FPL53 element from Ohara (Japan) came to life as optimal travelling apochromat.Įven at higher magnification, the image has no annoying chromatic error, with excellent correction at the same time.
