ASTROGRAPH AG 60 60/300 APO TECNOSKY F5

ASTROGRAPH AG 60 60/300 APO TECNOSKY F5

Compact astrograph, 60/300 mm with a fast f/5 focal ratio, for mobile use, with small mounts!

The success of the Tecnosky AG70 led to the birth of the brand new AG60, a very fast small 4-element Apo refractor for a fully corrected 44mm diagonal (APS-C and beyond)

The telescope is made up of an Apo FPL-55 doublet and Lanthanum glass and a flattening doublet near the focal point: you don't have to respect a precise backfocus, the important thing is that it is between 41 and 61mm. The connection to the fireplace is in male M48x0.75 or female M54x0.75 thread
On the robust 2.5" rack and pinion focuser there is a tilter with 4 points of adjustment and a comfortable, very precise field rotator.

Its length of only 270 mm (with sun visor retracted) and the weight of 3150 grams make it usable on small mounts such as the StarAdventurer Gti or the iOptron Sky Hunter: if you remove the handle and the long vixen bar, the weight is reduced to just 2700g, a weight easily supported by star trackers such as the iOptron Skyguider Pro or Skywatcher Star Adventurer.
Under the very long vixen bar (to be able to balance short tubes), there is an Arka Swiss type tray (compatible with many photographic heads and accessories) with numerous 1/4" holes: the handle is also Arka Swiss type with photographic holes and when removed there are two M4 holes which can be used for a second support for the installation of a finder for example.

This instrument was created exclusively for deep sky photography and cannot be used for visual observation (it does not achieve focus with a diagonal)
