The Vixen ED80SF is a compact 80mm ED Apochromat Refractor and offers extremely high-contrast, low-color error image quality. These premium quality Japanese ED optics are a big step up from standard Achromatic Refractors and offer incredible viewing sharpness of both solar system and deep space targets.
Combined with the popular Porta II Alt-Az mount, the ED80 SF is an ideal grab-and-go travel telescope for deep sky and planetary observation on the go.
ED80 SF Features:
- High quality ED refractor with 80mm aperture.
- Fast f7.5 aperture ratio, the ED80Sf meets the requirements for both experienced visual observers and also astrophotographers.
- Extremely high contrast and the excellent sharpness, especially when observing the moon and planets.
- The included diagonal mirror allows fatigue-free observations even in uncomfortable observation
- positions and also has a T2 thread for connecting a camera.
- The aluminium case protects the telescope safely from dust and transport damage.
The Porta II mount is very popular with beginners, but also offers experienced astronomers the opportunity to mount their devices quickly and easily as part of a grab-and-go setup. The Porta II does not require clamping, as it has a slip clutch, which makes it easy to adjust the mount with fine tune increments to center on an object. It then automatically holds your position making it super easy for anyone to use.
Grip positions as well as height and azimuth slow motion controls can be changed in 45° increments. This allows the user to use the handles on the mount for a more comfortable position. The accessory holder is provided with cut-outs for your eyepieces.
It can also be used to hold smaller photo accessories. The holder is mounted via a centrally mounted screw and a built-in
key is included to be able to adjust the friction of the slip clutch.
