1. L-eXtreme F/2 Introduction

Optolong L-eXtreme F/2 is a dual-band (500.7 nm and 656.28 nm, FWHM=7 nm) narrowband pass filter that meets the requirements for transmission at continuously varying angles. Astronomically characterised spectral lines (OIII, Ha) as the main transmission wavelengths, the OIII and H-Alpha nebula emission lines pass accurately at f2 - f3.3 Focal Ratio. It's a product that Optolong has developed specifically for fast optical systems or fast focal ratio imaging systems. It has performed well on RASA, HyperStar, and other fast ratio telescopes.

Key Features:

♦Together with one-shot colour astronomical cameras, monochrome astronomical cameras, and Digital SLR cameras, you can fast and quickly obtain clear and detailed images of the deep sky;

♦Ideal for fast optical systems, like RASA, Hyperstar, and other fast focal ratio telescope users;

♦Recommended for using a fast optical system with a focal ratio from f2 to f3.3;

♦Anti-light pollution、better contrast、more details of the celestial bodies: This filter cuts out background light and noise beyond the target celestial bodies to get better details and contrast of the images. L-eXtreme F/2 can effectively block light pollution so that the images will not affected by unwanted lights and skylight of the background. You can quickly get satisfactory pictures in fast optical systems.

2. Spectrum and Characteristic

Based on the characteristics of celestial bodies’ emission lines and light pollution emission lines, the L-eXtreme F/2 retains the prominent nebula OIII and Ha colours while blocking most of the light pollution. Specifically designed and optimally calculated for the characteristics of a fast optical system, the L-eXtreme F2 always keeps both OIII and Ha bands having high transmittance, which helps users to capture nebulae emission lines in these bands more accurately and quickly and obtain better astrophotographic images.

Kite APC 42 Full Black

Pentax's highly portable and functional U-Series UP Compact Binocular employs an innovative unibody design that locks the objective lenses into the body with the eyepieces set on a synchronized dual-axis mechanism that ensures they stay symmetrical in relation to the center axis of the optic when adjusting the interpupillary distance. The 25mm objective lenses are fully multicoated to reduce reflection and maximize light transmission to produce the brightest images possible. Aspherical lens elements virtually eliminate distortion, especially around the edges, and corrects for lens astigmatism which can prevent sharp focusing.

Designed for easy carrying and stowing, the binocular features a lightweight fiberglass reinforced polycarbonate housing that is corrosion and impact resistant. The housing material is also temperature-resistant allowing for its use in extreme climates while reducing expansion and contraction wide temperature variations can cause, which can make the optical components move out of collimation over time.

Farpoint Bahtinov Mask RASA 8" designed for the Celestron 8 inch RASA telescope, is an ingenious way to easily focus a telescope. Pavel Bahtinov, a Russian amateur telescope maker and astronomer, created this simple, very intuitive method and the device has universally been named after him: The Bahtinov Mask.

Farpoint Bahtinov Mask RASA 8"

Farpoint Bahtinov Mask RASA 8" is an ingenious way to easily focus a telescope. Pavel Bahtinov, a Russian amateur telescope maker and astronomer, created this simple, very intuitive method and the device has universally been named after him: The Bahtinov Mask.

Attach a camera to the telescope, center a fairly bright star and achieve rough focus. Then place the mask over the front aperture of your telescope by “hanging” it on the plastic screws from the front dew shield. Take a short exposure. The image of the star will show diffraction spikes. The “center” set will most likely be shifted to one side or the other. This is showing the defocus.

Adjust the focus of the telescope and re-expose the star, once again showing the diffraction spike pattern. Iterate the process until the central diffraction spike is centered against the star and the other spikes. When a symmetrical pattern is achieved, the best possible focus is then reached. Simply remove the mask, center the target object and take amazing, sharp images!

Farpoint manufactures this "lifesaving" astrophotography tool out of virtually indestructible ABS plastic, which comes in two major types and in a range of sizes. In addition to Bahtinov masks for telescopes, Farpoint also makes Bahtinov masks for DSLR camera lenses.

Farpoint Bahtinov Masks Are one of the best tools for manually focusing your telescope available to astrophotographers. In 2005, Pavel Bahtinov, a Russian amateur telescope maker and astronomer detailed a way to easily focus your DSLR, CMOS or CCD camera for astrophotography by adding a mask that matches the diameter of your telescope.

Bahtinov mask are a less expensive method of getting focus on objects in the night sky compared to a standard motor focuser.

With the right mask and setup it’s easy to get crystal clear focus on a star in less than 90 seconds.

How it works

The slits in the mask are the focus assist, when the star is in focus it will appear on your screen display as an “X” with a line through the center (see above).

These masks will work equally as well on the end of a scope or on the end of a dew shield on top of that the mask itself does not need to be perfected centered on the scope this is due to the angle of the slits themselves.

Select a bright star, this will be your guiding object. Place the Bahtinov focusing mask on your telescope’s lens and secure it into place using the provided rubber tabs.

The slits in the mask design create a set of diffraction spikes on the star that will assist in the accuracy of our focus. It will appear on your DSLR display screen or computer as an “X” with a line through the center (when in focus).

Tele Vue NP127is

For 25 years, Tele Vue has pushed the boundaries of APO refractors, as well as eyepieces, to the recognised pinnacle of performance. The Tele Vue NP127is retains the exemplary wide field and planetary visual capability while adding new features to make imaging easier and more flexible.

Tele Vue was determined to make the NP series optically, mechanically, and functionally as perfect as possible for imaging up to 50mm diagonal chips without penalty to its near-ideal visual operation.

By applying the developments created for the TeleVue60is to the new NP127is and then going beyond the results speak for themselves.

The NP127is maintains its 127mm f/5.2 optical specifications yet with a redesigned 4-element optical system. The larger rear lens group absolutely minimises vignetting in formats up to 50mm measured diagonally across the chip. An optional field corrector is available so the corners of the newly brightened edges are virtually as perfect as the centre of the field. To prevent restriction of the larger converging light cone the focuser has a 3" front aperture and a 2.4" rear aperture.

The new drawtube has features allowing quick changes from visual to imaging operation. While imaging cameras can be rotated without changing focus (just remember to do new flats!). It also has the capability to correct for any residual focal plane tilt so the imaging chip is square on to the light path.

The imaging insert ring is threaded to accept Tele Vue's new Imaging System accessories including large diameter extension tubes, optical accessories, and camera/CCD attachments all with mating threads.

TeleVue builds and tests the rack and pinion focuser to hold more than 5kg of weight, yet still permit extremely fine focusing control via a 10:1 dual-speed pinion assembly (measurable with the optional Digital Micrometer Kit). The optional Focusmate driver also permits electric motorised control of the focusing process. The new Focusmaster software interface allows this entire procedure to be completed from a PC or laptop.

Tele Vue has been known for producing visual instruments "even better than you imagined". The new NP127is is evidence that they aim to achieve the same with their imaging equipment

Tele Vue NP127is Specifications

After a short wait, the "re-tweaked" TV127is is available. Never ones to rest, Tele Vue took the opportunity to to make small but meaningful changes to their flagship model. Both the optical and mechanical designs have been revised to reduce atmospheric defocusing sensitivity. The new lens prescription delivers smaller spot sizes over a broader wavelength range than before, while a new stainless steel front cell helps provide better thermal stability in extreme climates. Advanced multi-coatings are applied to maximize contrast and transmission. Still the fastest in the industry, there is just no competitive comparison considering its f/5.2 speed and flat-field.

The Diamondback HD smashes the scale of price vs performance, delivering a rock-solid optic that optically punches high above its class. The included GlassPak binocular harness keeps your glass close at hand, ready to deploy at a moment's notice, all while providing protection and significantly more comfort than traditional neck straps.

Note – Recommended for use with a tripod. Tripod adapter included.

The telescope side of the Pyxis LE is a simple two-inch "push-fit" barrel. The long barrel adapter, just short of 2-1/2 inches, is easily inserted into any 2" focuser such as the Optec TCF-S Temperature Compensating Focuser. Combined with the TCF-S or TCF-Si, the Pyxis LE creates a focuser/rotator combination requiring less than 4-1/2 inches of back-focus.

The camera side of the Pyxis LE is a standard male T-thread. Any T-thread camera, filter wheel, off-axis guider, or industry standard T2 ring can screw directly on to the exit port of the Pyxis LE - no other adapters are required. All of the users existing accessories - T-thread spacers, off-axis guiders, filter wheels, etc. - can be attached directly. With the Pyxis LE, the confusion typically surrounding adapters is eliminated since the Pyxis LE is ready to use out-of-the-box. Simply attach your camera, slip into a 2-inch focuser, and you're ready to go.

The Pyxis LE is ideally suited for small, well-balanced cameras such as the QSI, Fish Camp, Starlight Xpress or SBIG ST-series CCD cameras. Canon and Nikon DLSR cameras will attach directly using an optional T2 bayonet ring. Optional T-thread extender rings can be added in 7.5 and 15mm lengths for additional offset to avoid filter wheel stepper motors such as with the SBIG CFW9.
