- Pinpoint star images with no coma or field curvature for exceptional clarity.
- Vixen’s unique VISAC system: aspherical primary mirror, convex secondary mirror, and triplet corrector lens.
- Perfectly corrected aberrations (coma, spherical, curvature) for sharp, high-definition results.
- Edge-to-edge performance: star images under 15 microns across the full 42mm image circle.
- Versatile use: ideal for both visual observation and astrophotography, with optional F6.4 reducer for deep sky imaging.
Exceptionally Sharp Star Images with No Coma or Field Curvature — Ideal for Astrophotography
The Vixen VC200L offers outstanding performance for astrophotography, delivering pinpoint star images free of coma, spherical aberration, and field curvature — even at the edges of the image.
At the heart of this telescope is Vixen's unique catadioptric optical system, known as VISAC (Vixen Sixth-order Aspheric Cassegrain). It features a high-precision sixth-order aspherical primary mirror, a convex secondary mirror, and a triplet corrector lens. This advanced design ensures sharp, high-definition star images across a wide 42mm image circle, making it ideal for both visual observing and deep-sky imaging.
Thanks to the superior optical correction, stars remain less than 15 microns in size from center to edge — producing images that are crisp and clean across the entire field.
For those looking to capture faint deep-sky objects, an optional focal reducer is available, converting the system to a fast f/6.4 focal ratio for even better imaging performance.

The incorporated vibration-canceller mechanism assures very stable image
Vibration by hands makes it often difficult to see clearly objects particularly at high magnification. ATERA H12x30 incorporates a vibration-canceller mechanism with a 2-axis gimbal control image stabilization mechanism. With a strong correction effect of vibration correction angle ± 3 degrees (up, down, left and right), a stable field of view can be obtained even at a high magnification of 12 times. Since micro vibration is also cancelled, it outperforms in observing details such as the shine of bird's eyes and the pattern of feathers. Also, if you observe a star, you can observe up to the darkest star as much as 1st grade than ordinary, which can not be seen with blurring.
Lightest 422g design allows easy handheld use
At just 422g, these are some of the lightest weight as binoculars equipped with a vibration cancelling mechanism.
Stamina 12 hours duration with AAA batteries
Two AAA batteries are used for power supply. Since it is easy to obtain anywhere, it is safe to observe in the field and live in remote areas.
Thanks to the long-life design of operation time of around 12 hours (using a new alkaline dry battery at 20 ° C), you can focus on observation without worrying about battery consumption. Auto power off function which automatically turns off the power after 5 minutes elapses prevents wasteful battery drain.
Clear visibility by three coatings
By applying fully multi coating with anti-reflection multilayered coat on the entire lens surface, the phase coat on the prism that reduces halation and dramatically increases resolution, and a high reflection coat that increases the brightness of the image, stray light and loss of light intensity are thoroughly eliminated for an extreme clarity in the field of view.
Ergonomically designed for excellent operability
A gentle rounded form fitting to a small hands, a focus ring that can be turned smoothly with light touch by single finger, a universal design that does not choose dominant hands, locating a battery space away from finger-touch area, all designed for holding comfort without stress. Considering loss of parts in a dark place such as a concert venue, we designed battery lid integrated.

The polar alignment scope is a small telescope that is installed parallel to the R.A. axis of an equatorial mount so that it can match the R.A. axis to be parallel in the direction of diurnal motion of stars.
The polar alignment scope utilizes 3 stars of Polaris, Delta UMi and 51 Cep near the north celestial pole.
You simply match the scale position on the reticle with the designated 3 stars seen in the polar alignment scope in order to locate the north celestial pole.
The patterns of the Big Dipper and Cassiopeia are engraved on the polar alignment reticle for use as a guidepost for the north celestial pole. The polar alignment scope can align the polar axis of the equatorial mount as accurately as 3 arc minutes or less.

Pillar leg An enhanced version of the SXG-P85 pillar leg. By changing the design of the support leg part, it is easier to assemble and the strength is improved. Since it has one leg, there are fewer blind spots when pointing the lens barrel mounted on an equatorial mount in any direction compared to a tripod. Since the installation radius can be smaller than that of a tripod of the same size, it can be installed even in a relatively narrow space.

Highly advanced "photo andvisual" optical design, the flagship of Vixen SD apochromatic refractors.
Vixen AX103 features a three element objective lens, incorporating an SD lens in its center, and the fourth lens inside of the focuser drawtube. This advanced optical design produces crystal-clear, sharp and high contrast images with no trace of falese color. In spot diagrams of the AX103S, the star images are extremely concentrated and are seen as small as 20 microns at the edge of ther file of view. The precision multicoatings applied to each surface to the lenses enhances visible light transmission to 99.5% on any single surface. An optional AX103 reducer which produces fast F5.6 forcal ratio is best for imaging of deep sky objects.

Vixen Telescope Wireless Unit Description
-
Comfortable wireless celestial navigation
By installing the smartphone app "STAR BOOK Wireless" on your smartphone or tablet, you can use it as a controller for your equatorial mount.
In addition to controlling the astronomical telescope, you can enjoy functions such as celestial navigation comfortably without cables. -
Stree-free fast response
The possible response delay in the operation of equatorial mount, which could be a drawback in wireless connections, has been successfully suppressed to a level comparable to wired connections(*), leading to stress-free and comfortable operation. (*)
A possible operational delay depends on the einvornment of wireless LAN connection. -
Reducing power consumption
Compared to conventional controllers with LCD monitors, power consumption is reduced by up to approximately 20% for the entire equatorial mount.
You will feel be assured even during long astronomical observations. -
Inheriting the DNA of STAR BOOK TEN Controller
If you tap the celestial object you want to see on the star chart, it will be automatically slew into the field of view and tracking will start.
Following the display of the STAR BOOK TEN controller, which has been highly evaluated for its comfortable operability, even existing STAR BOOK TEN users can use it without any discomfort. -
Swipe with one finger! Comfortable operation while looking through the telescope
Operate the telescope by swiping on the app's star chart. Since there are no buttons, you simply slide your finger over the star chart to comfortably operate without taking look at the screen while looking through telescope.
-
Rich celestial data
In addition to various data on famous celestial objects that are easy to observe (Messier, NGC, IC objects), it also includes the sun, moon, planets (including dwarf planets), it supports tracking of the respective celestial objects.
-
High-precision slewing by alignment
Performing alignment* at three or more points on the stars visible during observation realizes higher slewing accuracy.
The acquired alignment data will be stored and kept even after power is turned off.
Alignment data can be deleted at your opiton. If the telescope is not moved, you can resume automatic slewing using the same settings.
*Alignment is the process of matching the position information on the celestial coordinates stored by the app with the actual position of the star (visual position). -
Display settings of celestial objects
You can customize the display of celestial body types, names, etc, intended to ensure better visibility within the limited screen of the controller.
You can also set the timing of Meridian crossover, even the target celestial object goes south during tracking and shooting avoiding unintended optical tube reversal. -
Equipped with external autoguider terminal
An autoguider terminal compatible with the SIBIG autoguider is equipped as standard.
