Includes a 6mm Blocking Filter in 1.25" Diagonal, and Lunt's 1.25" Mini Helical Focuser
Focuser
The Lunt Mini is a non-rotating helical focuser that provides a T2 (male) to T2 (female) thread connection. The focuser has 10 mm of precision travel, a brass compression ring for protection of eyepieces, and a locking collar. The T2 thread design is ideal for fine camera/eyepiece focus.
Blocking Filter
The Blocking Filter houses additional filters which are required for the safety and performance of the solar package. In addition, Lunt Solar blocking filters contain a unique filter system. We can only warranty safety or performance when one of our blocking filters is paired with a Lunt H-alpha filter or telescope.
Includes the B600 Blocking Filter in a 1.25" Diagonal
