Baader Flattener M68 (83197)

A flattener, also known as a field flattener, is an optical accessory designed to correct the slight curvature of the field caused by the primary optics of a telescope. Without a flattener, stars near the edge of the field of view may appear less sharp compared to those in the center. By evening out this curvature, the flattener ensures that stars remain sharp across the entire image, making it an essential tool for astrophotographers. It is installed between the telescope and the camera for optimal performance.
