You can currently get the C 200/1800 VC200L VISAC Cassegrain telescope from Vixen for a particularly low price!

The VC200L VISAC has been specially developed for the requirements of astrophotography. The unique catadioptric system has an aspherical primary mirror, a convex secondary mirror and an additional triplet correcting lens. This combination results in the VISAC telescope optics (Vixen Sixth-Order Aspherical Cassegrain).

The VISAC system offers you tack-sharp  stars right to the edge of the field of view, as it corrects all three types of imaging errors of reflecting telescopes.

You can find more information here in the shop.

We offer the apochromatic refractor VSD 100 by Vixen at the special prices of €5,399. You save € 600 compared with the recommended retail price! This offer ends on the 31st December 2017. Order now!

The Apochromat VSD 100 is a dream for astrophotographers: With an aperture ratio of f/3.8 it is very fast. That means you only need a relatively short exposure time. That not only means that it can capture more detail in dim objects during your observation night, but that you can do without guiding and get by with a lighter mount. With the Reducer for the VSD 100 you can even obtain an aperture ratio of f/3!

The optical system of the VSD 100 comprising five lenses ensures an even field of view and reduces chromatic aberrations. That provides a sharp image right up to the edge – even with a relatively wide aperture of 100 mm!

This example shot taken on 09.01.2016 shows the comet C/2013 US10 (Catalina).

To achieve a field of view that is sufficiently large, the Reducer is mounted on the VSD 100. 25 shots with an exposure of 30 seconds each were taken with a DSLR camera and added to this overall image. Thanks to the short exposure time, neither autoguiding nor an especially precise alignment were necessary.
