Explore Scientific 0.7x Focal Reducer 3" Field Flattener 0.7x Focal Reducer  - FFFR507X-00

Elevate your astrophotography with the Explore Scientific 3-Inch Field Flattener 0.7x Focal Reducer – a versatile accessory correcting edge-of-field aberrations and reducing your f-ratio by 0.7.

Ideal for 127mm and 152mm refracting telescopes, excluding doublet refractors, it features fully multi-coated optics for optimal image quality.

This accessory threads onto the Explore Scientific 2-inch rack-and-pinion focuser, and for telescopes with a 2.5-hex focuser, an additional adapter is required.

Offering 55mm of back focus, plus 3mm with the M42x0.75 adapter, ensuring precise sensor placement at 52mm from the adapter's face.

For compatibility with the 2.5 hex focuser, consider item number 510366.

Originally designed for the f/8 system, user experiences and subsequent testing confirm excellent performance with f/7.5 refractors.
