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.

It eliminates the trouble of calculating the back focus distance of the flattener and connecting various accessories to achieve that distance. You can just connect any possible accessories you need. As long as the target is focused, the whole optical system is perfect for imaging. This makes the whole setting up process much more convenient, and saves you time, allowing you to pay more attention to the image shooting itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompared to the ZWO FF107 APO, the ZWO FF130 APO has a larger size. The aperture is 23mm larger. The focal length at f7\/7 is also longer, this will yield higher details and slightly higher magnifications but with a field of view suitable for all deep-ky objects. The longer focal length will be especially effective on planetary and larger deep-sky objects which, when combined with the larger 130mm aperture, will provide stunning details in a reasonable time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ZWO FF130 APO  with its quadruplet lens structure which contains two pieces of ED glass will control chromatic and other aberrations. With its self-flattening design, the ZWO FF130 APO offers strong advantages in astronomical shooting. It supports a medium frame 60mm image circle, has a fine spot diagram with tiny distortion on the peripheral stars, and its central RMS radius is less than 2 microns.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe OTA weighs only 10.5 kg, and the full package with tube rings and other accessories weighs 12.5kg. The 3.4″  rigid focuser comes with a new-type 360°rotator with scales and a finder base. M86, M68, M54, and M48 camera adapters are also attached, and the M48 adapter has a 2” female thread for installing filters. When used with the 3\" 0.7x flat-field reducer, the telescope can reach a focal ratio of f\/5.4 and a focal length of 700mm, effectively reducing exposure time.

It eliminates the trouble of calculating the back focus distance of the flattener and connecting various accessories to achieve that distance. You can just connect any possible accessories you need. As long as the target is focused, the whole optical system is perfect for imaging. This makes the whole setting up process much more convenient, and saves you time, allowing you to pay more attention to the image shooting itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ZWO FF65 APO is also a nice choice for your visual observation. It fits diagonals as well as various eyepieces and can achieve a perfect focus, and can even be used to observe planets with a super-high magnification eyepiece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe whole design of the telescope is compact and lightweight. The OTA weighs only 2kg, and the full package with tube rings and other accessories weighs 2.8kg. It has an aperture of 65mm. The focal ratio is f\/6.4 and the focal length is 416mm. Instead of the quadruplet structure of the other ZWO FF APO Refractors, the FF65 APO is a quintuplet, with two ed Glass elements that offer excellent control of Chromatic and other aberrations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ZWO FF65 APO supports the full-frame imaging circle and has a fine spot diagram with tiny distortions of the peripheral stars. The 2.5\" rigid focuser comes with a new-type 360°rotator with scales and a finder base.  M68, M54, and M48 camera adapters are also attached, and the M48 adapter has a 2” female thread for installing filters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eZWO FF65 APO  \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMain Features \u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQuintuplet air-spaced APO design  -

It eliminates the trouble of calculating the back focus distance of the flattener and connecting various accessories to achieve that distance. You can just connect any possible accessories you need. As long as the target is focused, the whole optical system is perfect for imaging. This makes the whole setting up process much more convenient, and saves you time, allowing you to pay more attention to the image shooting itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ZWO FF80 APO is also a nice choice for your visual observation. It fits diagonals as well as various eyepieces and can achieve a perfect focus, and can even be used to observe planets with a super-high magnification eyepiece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe whole design of the telescope is compact and lightweight. The OTA weighs only 3.9kg, and the full package with tube rings and other accessories weighs 4.7kg. It has an aperture of 80mm. The focal ratio is f\/7.5 and the focal length is 600mm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ZWO FF80 APO adopts a 3+1 quadruplet lens structure which contains two pieces of ED glass that can effectively reduce chromatic aberration and enhance clarity and sharpness. It supports the full-frame imaging circle and has a fine spot diagram with tiny distortions of the peripheral stars. The 3\"  rigid focuser comes with a new-type 360°rotator with scales and a finder base. M76, M68, M54, and M48 camera adapters are also attached, and the M48 adapter has a 2” female thread for installing filters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eZWO FF80 APO
