Product description Formerly reserved for larger-aperture near-research-grade optical tubes, the Meade Instruments LX65 6" f/10 ACF Catadioptric Telescope is built with an Advanced Coma-Free (ACF) catadioptric-variant optical path to reduce color fringing and off-axis comas and to enable it to clearly resolve dim deep-sky objects and easily split binary stars with tack-sharp clarity. Complementing the ACF system is Meade's Ultra-High Transmission Coatings (UHTC) system that improves light transmission through the entire light path across the whole visible spectrum. A combination of high-transmittance lens coatings and highly reflective mirror coatings boosts image brightness, while minimizing internal and external light loss and diffraction.The LX65 is equipped with a Vixen-style dovetail rail that makes it compatible with a wide variety of alt-azimuth, equatorial, and GoTo mounts of all kinds by virtually every mount manufacturer in the world. This version comes with a 26mm Super Plossl eyepiece that produces a relatively low 59x, a 90° star diagonal, and a red dot finder. - Optical Tube Assembly
-
- 152mm (6") aperture gathers enough light for viewing within the solar system as well as deep-sky objects without adding excessive weight and bulk, to maintain its portability
- Moderate f/10 focal ratio requires longer exposure times for astrophotography
- Long 1524mm focal length provides a high magnification potential
- Catadioptric light path produces long effective focal lengths in a small OTA to make it powerful, yet easier to store, transport, and set up
- Advanced Coma-Free (ACF) optical design corrects astigmatism and off-axis comas better than similar Cassegrain configurations
- Single-speed internal focusing mechanism with 1.25" eyepiece/accessory holder
- Optical Technologies
- Advanced Coma-Free System:
- Reduces off-axis comas and astigmatism for sharper images
- Eliminates diffraction spikes for better resolution
- Aplanatic design produces flat, distortion-free images across the field of view—especially at the edges
Ultra-High Transmission Coatings (UHTC):- All corrector plate and mirror surfaces are fully multi-coated
- Engineered to optimize visual, photographic, and CCD imaging
- Improve light transmission across the entire visible spectrum through the optical path
- Corrector plate coatings made up of multiple layers of aluminum oxide (Al2O3), titanium dioxide (TiO2), and magnesium fluoride (MgF2)
- Mirror coatings consist of aluminum with multi-layer coatings of titanium dioxide (TiO2) and silicon dioxide (SiO2)
- Mounting
-
- Optical tube assembly (OTA) only. Mount and tripod required for proper use
- Vixen-style dovetail plate is compatible with a wide variety of mounts
- OTA weight: 9.2 pounds
- Included Accessories
- Eyepiece:
- 1.25"-diameter barrel
- 26mm focal length produces a low 59x power for viewing the Moon and planets, and for wide-field deep-sky use
- Accepts most optional 1.25" astronomical filters to enhance views
- Fold-down rubber eyecup
Diagonal:- Star diagonal corrects view horizontally, but not vertically
- 1.25" nosepiece and eyepiece holder
Finder:- Unmagnified view ensures a wide field of view for easier alignment and faster star-hopping navigation
- Multiple intensity levels ensure reticle visibility without affecting night-adjusted vision
