More about the series APM-Bino...
In brief:
- Large binoculars with particularly high-quality optics
- Full multi-coating and BAK-4 prisms
- Lightweight but sturdy housing made from magnesium
- Extendable dew shields
- Interchangeable eyepieces for variable magnification
Binoculars in the FCD100 series impress with their colour-pure, high-contrast lenses. The apochromatic objectives are constructed from two lenses with an air gap, with the rear lens made from the special FCD100 glass of the same name.
Binoculars with a 100 mm aperture are universal instruments for astronomical and terrestrial observations. The large binoculars are also ideal when good transportability and a low weight are important. Thanks to their excellent optical and mechanical quality, you will enjoy many years of observation!
A 2x 100 mm aperture is sufficient for weaker objects and higher resolution. Thanks to the sensible coordination of the eyepiece focal length, you can observe great details of the moon, for example, which remain hidden in normal binoculars. Binocular observation allows the observer to look much more relaxed!
The housing is weatherproof and the stability of the magnesium housing is impressive. Extendable dew shields protect the lenses from fogging even during long observations and can serve as side light shields during the day. These binoculars naturally have a tripod connection and a sturdy carrying handle.
The binoculars can accommodate interchangeable eyepieces with a 1.25" barrel diameter. The Ultra Flat Field eyepieces (UF) from APM are very well suited. Different magnifications can be achieved by varying the eyepiece focal length.
The "UltraFlat Field Eyepiece features a high quality standard and a very compact design, which is designed to remove the field curvature at the edge, resulting in a flat, distortion-free image up to the edge of the visible field of view, even in very fast telesocpes.
The eyepiece has over - sized eyepiece lenses for the largest possible field of view and a high eyerelief - also suitable for spectacle wearers, the eye-rubber allow a comfortable view.
All lenses have a braod-band-multicoating (FMC) and blackened lens edges. The plug-in sleeve is equipped with a thread for "filters.
