Description

The VX series of telescopes offers many of the advantages of the premium CT series at a more accessible price point. These VX instruments feature the same high-quality optics as the CT series and are accompanied by a Zygo interferometer report.

Each model is equipped with a straight 50mm finder and a quality 2" focuser (with a 1.25" adapter), while the lightweight aluminum tube allows for easy mounting on various mounts. The precision, fan-cooled, 9-point suspension mirror cell ensures optimal support and cooling for the main mirror, maintaining its accuracy during extended observations.

A VX telescope delivers exceptional image quality, making it an excellent choice for serious beginners.

Mirror Cells: Proper support is essential for preserving optical precision. These telescopes feature a computer-optimized, anodized aluminum surface cell with a built-in cooling fan (12V DC). The 9-point nylon66 tipped suspension system evenly distributes the mirror's load, ensuring accuracy.

Focuser ACU-2S: The high-quality 2” (50.8mm) Crayford focuser offers smooth operation and precise focusing, making it ideal for photography with small to medium-sized cameras, including DSLR and medium format CCD chips. The 10:1 ratio micro adjustment ensures sharp, flawless images.
