Askar FRA400C – 72mm f/5.6 Quintuplet ED Apochromatic Refractor Astrograph
The Askar FRA400C is an apochromatic refractor astrograph with a 72 mm aperture and 400 mm focal length (f/5.6), developed for wide-field astrophotography. Thanks to its 5-element Petzval optical design (quintuplet ED), featuring an integrated field flattener, the FRA400C provides flat and corrected images across full-frame sensors, eliminating chromatic aberration and coma. Compact and lightweight, it represents an excellent solution for those seeking a high-performance, portable telescope for deep-sky imaging.
- 5-element APO astrograph with integrated flattener
- 72 mm aperture, 400 mm focal length (f/5.6)
- Perfectly corrected flat field up to full-frame
- High chromatic and geometric correction
- Compact and portable for mobile astrophotography
- 2.5" rack-and-pinion focuser with 1:10 micro-adjustment
- Retractable dew shield to reduce footprint
- CNC rings and Vixen-style dovetail bar included
