Outstanding Results Begin with Astounding Cameras
updated: 3rd May 2012
Astonishing deep space images don't happen by accident. They require dedication, patience
and superb instruments. That's why many of the world's astro-photographers rely on
Apogee Imaging Systems...
Its Fluorite FPL-53 optics, rigid construction and low focal ratio of f6.25 make
it also ideal for deep sky imaging, for use as a guider or as a travel scope.
The Ascension premium apo-chromatic refractors were the first reasonably priced
triplet ED telescopes widely available in the UK that use a high quality ED
triplet made in Japan (premium FCD1 ED). These first-class photo-visual instruments offer unequalled
value for money and come in three different sizes (80mm F6, 102mm F7 and 127mm F7.5).
