ZWO FF130-APO 130 mm F/7,7 quadruplet

Preorder now and receive a complimentary ZWO 0.7x F107130RE flattener with the optical tube. The ZWO FF130 APO is a highly professional telescope designed specifically for astrophotography. It features optimized optics with automatic field curvature correction and a four-element adapter for easy camera attachment, allowing you to start capturing stunning images right out of the box without the need for additional accessories.

This advanced telescope utilizes a four-element air gap apochromat design to ensure optimal chromatic aberration correction. ZWO has incorporated two elements made of low-dispersion (ED) glass, a feature typically found in more expensive flagship astrographs. The result is exceptional color reproduction and minimal field curvature, providing distortion-free images even at the edge of the frame, even without the use of an additional flattener.

In addition to its impressive optical performance, the ZWO FF130 APO boasts high-quality mechanical elements. The sturdy focuser can handle heavy astronomical cameras, while the CNC-machined mounting rings and Losmandy foot ensure rock-solid stability.
