Description du produit

The Askar 60F is an OTA with an aperture of 60mm, a focal length of 408mm, and a native focal ratio of F/6.8, designed for astronomy enthusiasts who prioritize portability and high image quality.

ASKAR 60F MAIN

The Askar 60F features a quadruplet optical lens design (three front elements and one rear element), including one piece of ED glass, which reduces chromatic aberration. The Askar 60F supports 44mm full-frame imaging with great performance of the surrounding star points.

ASKAR 60F ELEMENTS

With its built-in field flattener, the Askar 60F eliminates the need for an additional flattener and complex back-focus calculations. Simply attach your camera, achieve focus, and you’re ready to capture images, making astrophotography simpler and more enjoyable.

The Askar 60F OTA weighs only 2.5kg, and the gross weight is 3kg (including the tube rings and dovetail plate). It is compact and lightweight, making it easy to carry for observing or astrophotography—wherever your exploration takes you.

The Askar 60F is designed for both visual observation and photography. It comes with a photographic extension tube featuring a built-in 2" filter thread and has M48×0.75 and M54×0.75 adapters, making it compatible with DSLRs and astronomical cameras for quick connection and instant shooting.

ASKAR 60F ADAPTERS

The mechanical design of the Askar 60F minimizes hidden usage costs and ensures a smooth experience.

The Askar 60F features a retractable dew shield, further reducing overall length and enhancing portability. The inside of the tube is pasted with matting felt to eliminate stray light better, while the exterior sports a sleek blue-and-white color scheme with high-quality CNC machining and paint finish.
