The Askar FMA135 F/4.5  is an extremely compact and lightweight triplet apochromatic refractor with one ED (extra-low dispersion) lens. The FMA135, when combined with the built-in three element flattener, is a very capable super wide-field astrograph with minimal chromatic aberration and distortion across an APS-C frame. As well as its superb imaging capability, it can be configured as a visual telescope, finder or guide scope.

 

 

Features

  • Can be used as either a visual telescope or a highly corrected 135mm f/4.5 astrograph.
  • Compact and exceptionally light, at 113mm long and 240 grams.
  • Includes all adapters necessary for use as a photographic, visual, finderscope and guidescope. 
  • 1.25" (M28.5 x 0.6) female thread at the front of the telescope for mounting standard 1.25" filters.
  • Comes with mounting ring with finderscope dovetail base.
  • Extremely portable and versatile construction, ideal for grab and go astrophotography with a star tracker.
