Product information "EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC U-Mount with tripod for giant binoculars"
Massive fork mount with excellent and adjustable mechanics for large binoculars with tripod
When using giant binoculars, a stable mount and tripod with an appropriate load capacity is absolutely necessary. The new EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC U-mount with field tripod has been specially designed for the EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC BT series of giant binoculars, but also fits most other binoculars from 70 to 120mm lens diameter, which have a 1/4 inch photo thread connection on the underside. With the U-mount there is no shaking or annoying vibrations, the combination is as solid as a piece of iron and provides unlimited observation pleasure in all binocular adjustment positions. Whether you are observing the starry sky or the landscape, the U-mount is a solid base for your giant binocular and allows soft and smooth movements in both axes.
The U-mount as a base for giant binoculars and always with you on every excursion
An easily transportable but solid mount is essential when using giant binoculars. A simple photo tripod with ball head or video tilt head is quickly overloaded here. The new EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC U-mount has an excellent mechanism with adjustable friction in both axes, and allows easy adjustment and tracking even when the load is fully utilised. Depending on the adjusted intensity of the friction, the binocular position is kept stable or a soft and smooth movement can be achieved. The large adjustment screws on both axes are smooth and easy to operate even with gloves and clammy fingers. Vibrations are reduced to an absolute minimum by the solid construction of the U-mount. Even at high magnification, there are no shakes and the finest details can be observed. The U-mount and tripod can be separated for easy transport.
Mounting the large binoculars on the U-mount
The binoculars can be mounted and removed in a few seconds using the quick-release adapter plate included in the scope of delivery. This is a major advantage, especially for mobile outdoor use. The connection between binoculars and adapter plate is made by two 1/4 inch threaded bolts (standard photo tripod thread), which are variably guided in a slotted hole. A universal use with different binoculars is thus possible. The double screw connection guarantees a very secure fit of the binoculars. The adapter plate itself is also attached to the U-mount with the help of two large clamping screws, which are easy to use even when wearing gloves. Nothing wobbles here and all controls are easy to use.
The field tripod provides a secure stand
No matter what the surface, the EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC field tripod provides a safe stand. The solid aluminium and stainless steel construction effectively suppresses any kind of vibration. The large 50mm diameter stainless steel tripod legs and the aluminium tripod head plate are an ideal combination and offer maximum stability with a moderate transport weight of only 5.8kg. With applied and retracted tripod legs, the transport dimension is only 80cm long. The included accessory tray additionally gives some tension outwards to the tripod legs and thus to increase the stability. By pulling out the tripod legs, the working height for the binoculars can be individually adjusted within a range of approx. 100 to 140cm.

EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC BT-70 SF Giant Binoculars with 62° LER Eyepieces 20mm
£1,299.00*
Giant binoculars for observing the starry sky, nature and landscape. Observe
the beauty of the starry sky at night and distant objects in nature
during the day. Globular star clusters, glowing gas nebulae, the moon
with its craters and even planets can be observed wonderfully on a clear
night. But also all other distant things in nature and landscape, even
ships and airplanes can be seen in detail. With the all-round binoculars
of the EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC BT series, you can get up very close. Thanks
to the large, light-gathering lenses and the professional coatings on
all lens surfaces, these binoculars produce bright and brilliant images
even at night and at twilight, providing a special viewing pleasure. The
comfortable 45 degree viewing angle allows fatigue-free use even when
the binoculars are tilted strongly. Large binoculars can also be called a double refractor telescope One
complete lens telescope with the full light gathering power is
available per eye. Experience a whole new dimension of observing.
Objects are reproduced almost vividly in these binoculars and observing
with both eyes is basically very relaxed. Last but not least, this
comfortable way of observation increases the recognition of the finest
details and effectively prevents rapid eye fatigue. Extremely robust binoculars with magnesium housing, sealed and filled with nitrogen The
BT series binoculars are designed for tough outdoor use. The IPX6
sealed and nitrogen-filled design effectively prevents fogging of the
internal optics even under difficult weather conditions. The very light
magnesium housing saves weight and makes it easy to handle.
Two EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC 20mm eyepieces of the 62 degree LER series
already included. EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC is an established manufacturer of
extremely high-quality eyepieces in the astronomy scene. An optical
system is only as good as its weakest component. Therefore we have
decided to deliver these giant binoculars with a pair of quality
eyepieces of the 62 degree LER series. With an apparent field of view of
62 degrees and a focal length of 20mm, the BT-70 binoculars produce a 20x magnification. Thus these wide angle eyepieces offer a very good
overview (field of view 3,1 degree) at moderate magnification. The large
interpupillary distance of these LER (long eye relief) eyepieces of
15mm and soft silicone eyecups, which can be turned inside out, also
guarantee a comfortable and relaxed view. For astronomy, a flat and
sharp image field is advantageous and offers a particularly impressive
viewing experience even during the day. Due to the waterproof design and
the argon filling, these eyepieces are absolutely durable and easy to
clean. Interchangeable eyepieces with 1.25 inch / 31.7mm plug-in diameter Adjust
the magnification and field of view to your individual needs and choose
from a wide range of available eyepieces. All eyepiece types with a
plug-in diameter of 1.25 inch / 31.7mm can be used with the binoculars
of the BT series. Especially recommended are EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC
eyepieces of the 62 and 82 degree series with focal lengths from 8 to
26mm (see item No. 02188xx and 02196xx). The magnification can be varied
from 15x to 50x (focal length binoculars : focal length eyepiece =
magnification). The eyepieces are held in the binoculars by a precise
brass compression ring clamp and guarantee a tilt free position. Use of color and nebula filters for astronomical observations Increase
the contrast and visibility of objects and details by screwing the
corresponding filters directly into the thread of the eyepiece sleeves.
The use of color and nebula filters must of course always be done in
pairs. Suitable are all EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC screw filters with 1.25inch /
31.7mm diameter (see item No. 03102xx) Comfortable 45 degree view and helical single focus The
45-degree viewing angle allows a relaxed observation position even when
the binoculars are tilted strongly. Also the individual interpupillary
distance can be adjusted in a range from 54 to 76mm. With the fine
helical individual focusing, precise focusing is achieved effortlessly.
Extendable dew caps
The integrated dew caps can be removed in high humidity and cold
conditions. This avoids fogging of the outer objective lenses and
effectively shields additional control light coming in from the side. Integrated carrying handle A
metal carrying handle located at the center of gravity facilitates
transport and ensures a secure hold during tripod assembly. Suitable tripods and tripod connectionWhen
using these large binoculars, a sturdy photo tripod with an appropriate
load capacity is highly recommended. The connection is made via two 1/4
inch or one 3/8 inch threaded holes (standard photo tripod thread) in
the tripod adapter of the binoculars. The ideal solution is to use the
optional availlable EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC U-Mount with field tripod (item
No. 0114300). This is specially designed for the large binoculars of the
BT series and carries these devices absolutely safely. The excellent
mechanism with adjustable friction in both axes allows easy moving and
tracking. The binocular position is kept stable depending on the
adjusted friction intensity. Vibrations are reduced to a minimum by the
massive construction of the U-Mount and the large stainless steel
tripod. Even at high magnification there are no vibrations and the
finest details can be observed.FEATURES Large binoculars for observing the starry sky, nature and landscape Observe globular star clusters, glowing gas nebulae, the moon with its craters and even planets Also wild animals, ships and airplanes can be seen in detail Highly light gathering lenses produce a bright and high-contrast image All-round binoculars, but especially suitable in twilight and at night The comfortable 45 degree viewing angle allows fatigue-free use One complete lens telescope with the full light gathering power is available per eye Extremely robust binoculars with magnesium housing, sealed and filled with nitrogen Two EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC 20mm eyepieces of the 62 degree LER series already included 20x magnification and an apparent field of view of 62 degrees, true visible field of 3,1 degreesLarge interpupillary distance of 15mm to the eyepiece lens for comfortable viewing Eyepieces interchangeable and with standardized plug-in diameter of 1.25 inch / 31.7mm The magnification can be adjusted with optional eyepieces from 15x to 50x Precise brass eyepiece compression ring clamps for tilt-free fitColor and nebula filters can be used for astronomical observations Extendable dew caps prevent fogging of the outer objective lenses and stray light Integrated carrying handle facilitates transport and mounting on the tripod Tripod connection via two 1/4 inch or one 3/8 inch threaded holes (standard photo tripod thread) Tripod recommendation: EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC U-mount with field tripod (Art.No. 0114300) Objective type: Air spaced achromatic lens (2 elements/ 1 group) Coating: full multilayer coating on all optical surfaces Aperture, focal length and aperture ratio: 70mm / 400mm / F=5.7 Sealed to IPX6 standard and nitrogen filled: yes / yes Close focus distance: 12 meters Eyepiece mount diameter: 1.25'' / 31.7mm Adjustable interpupillary distance: 54 to 76 mm Helical single focus: yesBAK-4 prism system for a bright and high-contrast image Dimensions and weight of binoculars: 370 x 213 x 122mm, 3.4kg Housing color of binoculars: white SCOPE OF DELIVERY Giant binoculars with carrying handle (without tripod)Eyepieces ES 20mm 62 degrees LER Series (2pcs)Precisely fitting foam insert for transport Dust covers for objectives and eyepiece sockets Instruction manual

But also all other distant things in nature and landscape, even ships and airplanes can be seen in detail. With the all-round binoculars of the EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC BT series, you can get up very close. Thanks to the large, light-gathering lenses and the professional coatings on all lens surfaces, these binoculars produce bright and brilliant images even at night and at twilight, providing a special viewing pleasure. The comfortable 45 degree viewing angle allows fatigue-free use, even when the binoculars are tilted upwards towards the zenith. A large binocular can also be called a double refractor telescope Binoculars such as these can really be described as a double telescope. In this configuration, the full light gathering power of one single telescope is available to each eye. Experience a whole new dimension of observing as a consequence. Objects are reproduced almost vividly in these binoculars and observing with both eyes is a very relaxing experience. Last but not least, this comfortable way of observation increases the recognition of the finest details (particularly in fainter deep sky targets) and effectively prevents eye fatigue. Extremely robust binoculars with magnesium housing, sealed and filled with nitrogen The BT series binoculars are designed for tough outdoor use. The IPX6 sealed and nitrogen-filled design effectively prevents fogging of the internal optics even under difficult weather conditions. The very light magnesium housing saves weight and makes it easy to handle.
Two EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC 20mm eyepieces of the 62 degree LER series already included. EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC is an established manufacturer of extremely high-quality eyepieces in the astronomy scene. An optical system is only as good as its weakest component. Therefore we have decided to deliver these giant binoculars with a pair of quality eyepieces of the 62 degree LER series. With an apparent field of view of 62 degrees and a focal length of 20mm, the BT-120 binoculars produce a 33x magnification. Thus these wide angle eyepieces offer a very good overview (field of view 1.8 degrees) at moderate magnification. The large interpupillary distance of these LER (long eye relief) eyepieces of 15mm and soft silicone eyecups, which can be turned inside out, also guarantee a comfortable and relaxed view. For astronomy, a flat and sharp image field is advantageous and offers a particularly impressive viewing experience even during the day. Due to the waterproof design and the argon filling, these eyepieces are absolutely durable and easy to clean. Interchangeable eyepieces with 1.25 inch / 31.7mm plug-in diameter Adjust the magnification and field of view to your individual needs and choose from a wide range of available eyepieces. All eyepiece types with a plug-in diameter of 1.25 inch / 31.7mm can be used with the binoculars of the BT series. Especially recommended are EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC eyepieces of the 62 and 82 degree series with focal lengths from 8 to 26mm (see item No. 02188xx and 02196xx). The magnification can be varied from 25x to 75x (focal length binoculars : focal length eyepiece = magnification). The eyepieces are held in the binoculars by a precise brass compression ring clamp and guarantee a tilt free position. Use of colour and nebula filters for astronomical observations Increase the contrast and visibility of objects and details by screwing the corresponding filters directly into the thread of the eyepiece sleeves. The use of colour and nebula filters must of course always be done in pairs. Suitable are all EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC screw filters with 1.25inch / 31.7mm diameter (see item No. 03102xx) Comfortable 45 degree view and helical single focus The 45-degree viewing angle allows a relaxed observation position even when the binoculars are tilted strongly. Also the individual interpupillary distance can be adjusted in a range from 54 to 76mm. With the fine helical individual focusing, precise focusing is achieved effortlessly.
Extendable dew caps
The integrated dew caps can be removed in high humidity and cold conditions. This avoids fogging of the outer objective lenses and effectively shields additional control light coming in from the side. Integrated carrying handle A metal carrying handle located at the center of gravity facilitates transport and ensures a secure hold during tripod assembly. Suitable tripods and tripod connectionWhen using these large binoculars, a sturdy photo tripod with an appropriate load capacity is highly recommended. The connection is made via two 1/4 inch or one 3/8 inch threaded holes (standard photo tripod thread) in the tripod adapter of the binoculars. The ideal solution is to use the optional available EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC U-Mount with field tripod (item No. 0114300). This is specially designed for the large binoculars of the BT series and carries these binoculars absolutely securely. The excellent support mechanism, with adjustable friction in both axes allows easy moving and tracking. The binocular position is kept stable depending on the adjusted friction intensity. Vibrations are reduced to a minimum by the massive construction of the U-Mount and the large stainless steel tripod. Even at high magnification there are no discernable vibrations and this allows the finest details to be observed in a chosen target.FEATURES Large binoculars for observing the starry sky, nature and landscape Observe globular star clusters, glowing gas nebulae, the moon with its craters and even planets Also wild animals, ships and airplanes can be seen in detail Highly light gathering lenses produce a bright and high-contrast image All-round binoculars, but especially suitable in twilight and at night The comfortable 45 degree viewing angle allows fatigue-free use One complete lens telescope with the full light gathering power is available per eye Extremely robust binoculars with magnesium housing, sealed and filled with nitrogen Two EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC 20mm eyepieces of the 62 degree LER series already included 33x magnification and an apparent field of view of 62 degrees, true visible field of 1,8 degreesLarge interpupillary distance of 15mm to the eyepiece lens for comfortable viewing Eyepieces interchangeable and with standardized plug-in diameter of 1.25 inch / 31.7mm The magnification can be adjusted with optional eyepieces from 25x to 75x Precise brass eyepiece compression ring clamps for tilt-free fitColor and nebula filters can be used for astronomical observations Extendable dew caps prevent fogging of the outer objective lenses and stray light Integrated carrying handle facilitates transport and mounting on the tripod Tripod connection via two 1/4 inch or one 3/8 inch threaded holes (standard photo tripod thread) Tripod recommendation: EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC U-mount with field tripod (Art.No. 0114300) Objective type: Air spaced achromatic lens (2 elements/ 1 group) Coating: full multilayer coating on all optical surfaces Aperture, focal length and aperture ratio: 120mm / 660mm / F=5.5 Sealed to IPX6 standard and nitrogen filled: yes / yes Close focus distance: 35 meters Eyepiece mount diameter: 1.25'' / 31.7mm Adjustable interpupillary distance: 54 to 76 mm Helical single focus: yes BAK-4 prism system for a bright and high-contrast imageDimensions and weight of binocular: 654 x 290 x 156mm, 8.3kg Housing colour of binocular: white What's included Giant binocular with carrying handle (without tripod)Eyepieces ES 20mm 62 degrees LER Series (2pcs)Precisely fitting foam insert for transport Dust covers for objectives and eyepiece sockets Instruction manual

With a range of up to 150 m and a durable, weatherproof housing, you can set it up just where you need it for the most accurate results.
WBGT - stay safe in the heat
When the mercury soars, heat can take a toll on your body. That’s where the Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (WBGT) comes in. It combines three factors - air temperature, mean radiant temperature and wet-bulb temperature - to calculate heat stress accurately. If the wet-bulb temperautre value stays above 35 °C, your body starts absorbing heat from its surroundings, which can quickly become dangerous.
Whether you’re training, gardening or enjoying the outdoors, this digital weather station gives you the exact WBGT reading at all times. The heat stress index also provides a simple warning, so you know when to take a break.
Indoor climate check included
A healthy climate isn’t just for outside. The base station also measures indoor temperature and humidity via its built-in thermometer and hygrometer. The handy comfort indicator lets you know straight away whether your home or office needs airing. It also tracks air pressure, a reliable sign of changing weather.
Detailed weather analysis with alerts
This garden weather station doesn’t stop at the basics. It also calculates feels-like temperature, heat index, dew point and wind chill, plus shows you wind strength using the Beaufort scale.

EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC BT-100 SF Giant Binoculars with 62° LER Eyepieces 20mm
£1,699.00*
Giant binoculars for observing the starry sky, nature and landscape. Observe
the beauty of the starry sky at night and distant objects in nature
during the day. Globular star clusters, glowing gas nebulae, the moon
with its craters and even planets can be observed wonderfully on a clear
night. But also all other distant things in nature and landscape, even
ships and airplanes can be seen in detail. With the all-round binoculars
of the EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC BT series, you can get up very close. Thanks
to the large, light-gathering lenses and the professional coatings on
all lens surfaces, these binoculars produce bright and brilliant images
even at night and at twilight, providing a special viewing pleasure. The
comfortable 45 degree viewing angle allows fatigue-free use even when
the binoculars are tilted strongly. Large binoculars can also be called a double refractor telescope One
complete lens telescope with the full light gathering power is
available per eye. Experience a whole new dimension of observing.
Objects are reproduced almost vividly in these binoculars and observing
with both eyes is basically very relaxed. Last but not least, this
comfortable way of observation increases the recognition of the finest
details and effectively prevents rapid eye fatigue. Extremely robust binoculars with magnesium housing, sealed and filled with nitrogen The
BT series binoculars are designed for tough outdoor use. The IPX6
sealed and nitrogen-filled design effectively prevents fogging of the
internal optics even under difficult weather conditions. The very light
magnesium housing saves weight and makes it easy to handle.

interpupillary distance of these LER (long eye relief) eyepieces of
15mm and soft silicone eyecups, which can be turned inside out, also
guarantee a comfortable and relaxed view. For astronomy, a flat and
sharp image field is advantageous and offers a particularly impressive
viewing experience even during the day. Due to the waterproof design and
the argon filling, these eyepieces are absolutely durable and easy to
clean. Interchangeable eyepieces with 1.25 inch / 31.7mm plug-in diameter Adjust
the magnification and field of view to your individual needs and choose
from a wide range of available eyepieces. All eyepiece types with a
plug-in diameter of 1.25 inch / 31.7mm can be used with the binoculars
of the BT series. Especially recommended are EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC
eyepieces of the 62 and 82 degree series with focal lengths from 8 to
26mm (see item No. 02188xx and 02196xx). The magnification can be varied
from 21x to 70x (focal length binoculars : focal length eyepiece =
magnification). The eyepieces are held in the binoculars by a precise
brass compression ring clamp and guarantee a tilt free position. Use of color and nebula filters for astronomical observations Increase
the contrast and visibility of objects and details by screwing the
corresponding filters directly into the thread of the eyepiece sleeves.
The use of color and nebula filters must of course always be done in
pairs. Suitable are all EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC screw filters with 1.25inch /
31.7mm diameter (see item No. 03102xx) Comfortable 45 degree view and helical single focus The
45-degree viewing angle allows a relaxed observation position even when
the binoculars are tilted strongly. Also the individual interpupillary
distance can be adjusted in a range from 54 to 76mm. With the fine
helical individual focusing, precise focusing is achieved effortlessly.
Extendable dew caps
The integrated dew caps can be removed in high humidity and cold
conditions. This avoids fogging of the outer objective lenses and
effectively shields additional control light coming in from the side. Integrated carrying handle A
metal carrying handle located at the center of gravity facilitates
transport and ensures a secure hold during tripod assembly. Suitable tripods and tripod connectionWhen
using these large binoculars, a sturdy photo tripod with an appropriate
load capacity is highly recommended. The connection is made via two 1/4
inch or one 3/8 inch threaded holes (standard photo tripod thread) in
the tripod adapter of the binoculars. The ideal solution is to use the
optional availlable EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC U-Mount with field tripod (item
No. 0114300). This is specially designed for the large binoculars of the
BT series and carries these devices absolutely safely. The excellent
mechanism with adjustable friction in both axes allows easy moving and
tracking. The binocular position is kept stable depending on the
adjusted friction intensity. Vibrations are reduced to a minimum by the
massive construction of the U-Mount and the large stainless steel
tripod. Even at high magnification there are no vibrations and the
finest details can be observed.FEATURES Large binoculars for observing the starry sky, nature and landscape Observe globular star clusters, glowing gas nebulae, the moon with its craters and even planets Also wild animals, ships and airplanes can be seen in detail Highly light gathering lenses produce a bright and high-contrast image All-round binoculars, but especially suitable in twilight and at night The comfortable 45 degree viewing angle allows fatigue-free use One complete lens telescope with the full light gathering power is available per eye Extremely robust binoculars with magnesium housing, sealed and filled with nitrogen Two EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC 20mm eyepieces of the 62 degree LER series already included 28x magnification and an apparent field of view of 62 degrees, true visible field of 2,3 degreesLarge interpupillary distance of 15mm to the eyepiece lens for comfortable viewing Eyepieces interchangeable and with standardized plug-in diameter of 1.25 inch / 31.7mm The magnification can be adjusted with optional eyepieces from 21x to 70x Precise brass eyepiece compression ring clamps for tilt-free fitColor and nebula filters can be used for astronomical observations Extendable dew caps prevent fogging of the outer objective lenses and stray light Integrated carrying handle facilitates transport and mounting on the tripod Tripod connection via two 1/4 inch or one 3/8 inch threaded holes (standard photo tripod thread) Tripod recommendation: EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC U-mount with field tripod (Art.No. 0114300) Objective type: Air spaced achromatic lens (2 elements/ 1 group) Coating: full multilayer coating on all optical surfaces Aperture, focal length and aperture ratio: 100mm / 550mm / F=5.5 Sealed to IPX6 standard and nitrogen filled: yes / yes Close focus distance: 25 meters Eyepiece mount diameter: 1.25'' / 31.7mm Adjustable interpupillary distance: 54 to 76 mm Helical single focus: yes BAK-4 prism system for a bright and high-contrast imageDimensions and weight of binoculars: 520 x 270 x 155mm, 6.8kg Housing color of binoculars: white SCOPE OF DELIVERY Giant binoculars with carrying handle (without tripod)Eyepieces ES 20mm 62 degrees LER Series (2pcs)Precisely fitting foam insert for transport Dust covers for objectives and eyepiece sockets Instruction manual

EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC ED APO 127mm f/7.5 FCD-100 CF HEX
£2,779.00*
Highly corrected 127mm air-spaced triplet apochromat (with three lenses) and carbon fibre tube and a 2.5" high-precision HEXAFOC focuser. NEW: Now with hybrid viewfinder shoe to accept different viewfinder holders. Apochromats are the ultimate choice in small to medium sized telescopes: the combination of compactness, transportability, very high image contrast and sharpness together with excellent astrophotographic performance cannot be bested. The advances in glass manufacturing during the last few years have made true apochromats available to more astronomy enthusiasts than ever before. The new Explore Scientific FCD-100 CF Hex represents another major improvement in this field - the overall correction (colour and spherical) is setting new standards in this price class. The optical design shows a polystrehl value of 0.97 indicating a level of correction that is absolutely top of the line.This excellent apochromat is a very versatile telescope: its reasonably fast f-ratio makes for short exposure times when imaging deep sky objects, but it is still of a significant focal length, making higher power planetary and lunar observation comfortable without having to use really high magnification eyepieces. The high contrast and sharpness of the image provide breathtaking views of large objects like the North America nebula or the Andromeda galaxy, as well as tack sharp planetary images. The telescope is lightweight and compact - the dew shield slides down the tube to minimize size for transportation. Revolutionary glass and precision manufacturing come together to deliver a telescope that offers observing and imaging at the highest level. The Carbon Fibre construction allows this telescope to be used on lower capacity mounts, increasing convenience and portability. Although there are smaller instruments available, the combination of aperture and optical excellence at such a low weight and compact tube makes this an excellent travel scope. The well-designed 2.5" HEXAFOC focuser with 10:1 reduction is perfect for both visual and astrophotographic use - the large inner diameter of 65mm prevents vignetting by the focuser when the telescope is used for astrophotography with large sensors (full frame and above).We offer the very popular EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC Triplet ED APO Refractors in 3 different product lines:Essential Line: HOYA FCD-1 Glass lens, AL-Tube, 2.0" Rack & Pinion Focuser with 1:10, 2.0" Star Diagonal 99% Reflectivity (see Part No. 0112084(AL), 0112106(AL), 0112132(AL)), 0112155(CF + 3"FT)).
