Featuring Japanese Hoya glass, the FCD100 series offers little to no chromatic aberration for almost fluorite level imaging quality, For the best of the best imaging quality for the astronomer, the FCD100 range's high refractive index coupled with propriety EMD 'enhanced multi-layer deposition' means that high contrast and definition from the lunar surface, Saturn's rings, or deep sky objects will be within your telescope's capabilities.  The FCD100 range also features a dual speed (10:1) 2.5" Hexagonal focuser for extra smooth and precise focusing, a step up from standard crayford focusers found in cheaper makes. Weighing only 2.68kg without accessories, this lightweight triplet is perfect as a primary widefield astrograph or as a guide scope. The telescope includes a 2" dielectronic diagonal with 1.25" adapter which accepts both 2" and 1.25" sized eyepieces and accessories. The diagonal measures at 99% reflectivity to maximise light transmission, and is engineered to accept 2" filters on the telescope side and a brass compression ring on the eyepiece size.    Features 80mm aperture 480mm focal length (F/6) Hoya's FCD100 Apochromatic Triplet Glass EMD enhanced multi-layer deposition coatings 2.5" Dual Speed Hexagonal focuser Includes: 2" 28mm LET Eyepiece, 9x50 Erecting Finderscope, 2" Dielectric diagonal with 1.25" eyepiece.    Full Specifications Aperture 80mm Focal length 480mm Focal Ratio F/6.0 Optical design Japanese made FCD100 Refractor Focuser 2.5" hexagonal dual speed focuser Eyepiece included 2" 28mm LET Finderscope 9x50 erect image finderscope Tube dimensions 311mm (contracted dew shield) to 359mm (with dew shield) Tube weight 2.68kg (without accessories)   As the saxon FCD100 80mm Apochromatic ED Triplet Refractor Telescope weighs 2.68kg, this telescope requires the EQ3 Goto Mount and above.    Recommended Accessories Saxon HEQ5 Pro GOTO Mount with Steel Tripod Dual SaddleAn impressive GoTo German-Equatorial Mount with a payload capacity of 13.7kg. saxon Optical Lens Cleaning KitKeep your telescope and lenses in top shape by cleaning them of any dust and debris.
