TS PHOTOLINE 80 F/6 Telescope with FeatherTouch

The TS PHOTOLINE triplet APOtelescopes offer high quality images reaching levels of performance that until now were only available with much more expensive equipment . Chromatic aberrations have been virtually extinguished and color correction is much better than that offered by standard ED doublet refractors. Undoubtedly, the TS PHOTOLINE telescopes guarantee high performance ideal for astrophotographers, with the ability to fully illuminate large CCD sensors and with temperature compensated lens sustaining cells.

The lens is air spaced and not cemented. This avoids problems arising from thermal variations that often occur with triplet objectives that are cemented (physically bonded together, in contact). The TS PHOTOLINE 80/480mmtelescope when used with a field flattener can give better photographic results than a similar 110mm diameter telescope.The TS PHOTOLINE 80/480mm telescope can be recommended without reservation for working with CCD's up to 45mm diagonal.

The TS PHOTOLINE APO telescopes offer highly efficient color correction and capture a useful photographic field for full-frame cameras.

The precise 2" FEATHER TOUCH FTF2025BCR Crayford focuser offers a vignetting-free field and greater stability compared to a standard 2" focuser.
The TS PHOTOLINE APOtelescopes are a new generation of refractor telescopes specially designed for deep sky (wide field) astrophotography.
