DEMO WILLIAM OPTICS REDCAT 51 II-U

This ex-demo William Optics Redcat 51 II-U is in excellent as-new condition and comes with original accessories, carry case and shipping box. As with all used items, there may be cosmetic imperfections but these do not affect the performance or functionality. Photos are of the actual item.

The William Optics RedCat 51 Version II-U is a fast apochromatic petzval refractor optimized for widefield astrophotography. Affordable, small and lightweight, the RedCat is perfect for traveling and on-the-go imaging.

With a fast focal ratio of f/4.9 and a focal length of 250mm, the RedCat 51 is perfect for capturing large deep space objects such as the Rosette nebula, the Pleiades, Eta Carina and more. The RedCat also excels as a telephoto wildlife lens.

The unique optical design includes the highest quality FPL-53 and FPL-51 synthetic fluorite glass for the best possible colour correction and a flat field across a full-frame sensor.

Note: the latest II-U version of the RedCat 51 is no longer able to be used visually, nor is it compatible with the RedCat 1.25" Erecting Prism (D-EP90-125-RC51-SL).
