TS Photoline 130mm Refractor f/7 Deluxe APO:

The 130mm f/7 Apo triplet refractor is equipped with one of the best lenses in its class. The proven FPL53 from Ohara (Japan) is used for the APO element. This color-pure lens is mounted in a temperature-compensated frame that also compensates for sub-zero temperatures. The powerful lens is very popular with astrophotographers, as this APO also has a large 3.7" RPA pull-out. This means that CCD cameras with large sensors can also be used.

Advantages and features of the PHOTOLINE 130 mm F7 Deluxe APO:

1. Triplet lens with air gap - APO element from FPL53 from Ohara Temperature-compensated, fully adjustable lens mount.
2. 3.7" RPA Photoline Gear drive focuser with micro reduction - carries accessories up to 8 kg with 360° rotation
3. Stable aluminum tube with inner panels against stray light
4. Practical carrying handle and EQ5-level dovetail bar on one side and a Losmandy-level dovetail bar on the other side
5. 100 mm long spacer between Focuser and tube screwed with M123 x 1 thread on both sides

Another highlight of the telescope is certainly the modern "Rack-And-Pinion" pull-out with tooth drive adjustment and ball bearing. The large-sized Extract also allows the use of full-frame and large-format cameras without vignetting (of course with the appropriate correctors).
