Product description Ideal for visual observation as well as prime focus, eyepiece projection, and afocal imaging astrophotography techniques, the Vixen Optics SD115S 115mm f/8 ED APO Refractor Telescope has the largest aperture and longest focal length in the series, boosting its light-gathering ability and magnification potential up from the smaller models—making this an ideal optical tube for any astronomer or photographer who wants to view and photograph the moon, planets and deep sky objects.Optically, Vixen outfitted the SD115S with FPL53 extra-low dispersion (ED) glass, in a fully multi-coated apochromatic lens system that corrects for both spherical and chromatic aberrations, astigmatism, and off-axis comas. This correction creates a wide flat field of view without distortion and removes the blue-tinted halo effect for true high-contrast color transmission. It can accept both 2" and 1.25" eyepieces and accessories for visual use, and threads on the drawtube allow direct connection of T-rings and other camera mounts.Included with the the optical tube assembly (OTA) is a flip-mirror diagonal with dual 1.25" holders. The light path can be directed to the upper holder with the mirror in the Up position, and to the rear holder by flipping it down. For visual observation, the mirror can hold two eyepieces to allow easy changes from low to high magnification. When using it for imaging, the camera or imaging system is placed in the back, and an eyepiece can be attached at the top to check alignment and tracking between exposures.Vixen offers the OTA without a mount and tripod for users who already have a reliable support system, but include a mounting ring assembly and a Vixen-style dovetail plate to make it compatible with a wide variety of mounts. An integrated carry handle makes set up and break down easier and safer. - Optical Tube
