Explore Scientific 3" 0.7x Reducer/Corrector

Explore Scientific 3" 0.7x Reducer/Corrector

DESCRIPTION
The Explore Scientific 3" 0.7x reducer/corrector shortens the focal length by 0.7x (at f/8) or 0.8x (at f/10), while flattening the field for astrophotography. It was initially designed for ED127 and ED152 APO telescopes but is also compatible with ED102 and ED165 models.
It offers a generous 65 mm clear aperture for use with large-sensor cameras, provided the optical system allows it.
The reducer features an M76x0.75 mm telescope thread and an M72x0.75 mm camera output. It includes several adapters: a 3" barrel insert, a M54x0.75 mm thread adapter for the Explore Scientific Essential focusers, and a T2 (M42x0.75 mm) camera adapter.
For telescopes with a 2.5" HEX focuser, adapter #0510366 is required. For 2" focusers, adapter #0510364 enables proper connection.
Not compatible with Explore Scientific 80 mm ED APOs.
