Product description

The Askar 71F ('Flat Field') is a compact quadruplet astrograph with an aperture of 71 mm, a focal length of 490 mm and a native aperture ratio of f/6.9. The instrument features a quadruple apochromatic lens with air gap, including an ED element that effectively reduces chromatic aberration. The Askar 71F supports 44 mm full-frame imaging with excellent reproduction of stars at the edge of the field. An integrated flattener allows you to dispense with additional correctors.

A comprehensive scope of delivery consisting of a viewfinder shoe, carrying handle, photo adaptors, 2 eyepieces, a Vixen/GP prism rail with photo tripod connection and a test certificate round off the product.

It not only matters which telescope you buy but also where you buy it. Our additional services:

  • We are a leading telescope dealer and know the devices we sell. Our customer service team will gladly help you after your purchase if you have problems with assembly or operation.
  • We provide a copy of the 80-page Telescope ABC beginners handbook with every telescope.
