The Askar 103APO triplet tube is a high-quality optical instrument designed for astronomy enthusiasts and experts. Its sophisticated design and manufacturing ensure that the telescope delivers uncompromising performance for both astrophotography and visual observation.
The 103 mm diameter triplet objective with ED lens elements minimizes chromatic aberration at a 700 mm focal length. The tube features a 3.5" dual-speed rack and pinion focuser that ensures precise focusing. A key feature is its 360-degree rotatable capability, allowing for easy adjustment in any position.
The tube design is particularly noteworthy for its dual finder shoe and multifunctional handle, which provide convenient and secure usage. The reinforced tube rings offer extra stability, essential for longer observations. The Askar 103APO also has optional 0.8x and 0.6x reducers available, with the latter achieving a focal ratio of f/4.
Thanks to its modular construction, the tube is well-suited for use with a binocular viewer.
