CA Residents: Prop 65 Warning(s)

A new apochromatic refractor with high-performance Super ED glass (=SD). The FPL53 glass reproduces an extremely clear and sharp image by eliminating residual chromatic aberration. Another advantage of these SD refractors is their short length and lightweight design.

High-performance, top-of-the-range fluorite apochromat for mobile astrophotography and observers.

Thanks to its small size and lightweight design, this high-quality fluorite refractor is ideal for excursions and air travel.

It displays razor-sharp and bright stars across the entire field of view of the full-frame image sensor (95% illumination with 44 mm image circle).

The FL55SSS turns into a fast F/4.3 astrograph with the optional flattener and focal reducer. It allows you to use extremely short exposure times and provides a large field of view for large nebulae or comets.

Despite the small aperture, the FL55SS features a high-resolution HR eyepiece that produces stunningly clear images of the moon and the bright planets.

When used for astrophotography, it delivers razor-sharp images of stars that are guaranteed to impress.
