Takahashi - TOA-130S 5.1" f/7.7 Ortho APO Refractor OTA with 2.7" Focuser
IN STOCK!
130mm f/7.7 triplet Ortho APO is Takahashi's newest design.
Compact design sports 32" tube with lens shade retracted.
Includes 2.7" Focuser
The TOA-130 is the first of Takahashi's newest optical design: The Ortho-Apochromat. This 21st century innovation employs a
newly designed triplet using special elements to produce the highest order of color correction and is packaged in a short 32”
tube with the lens shade retracted.
This instrument is offered here with the classic 2.7” focuser. For those wanting to use a medium format camera, we also
offer a deluxe 4” focuser with built–in camera angle adjuster (TSA0131).
The high order of color correction of the Ortho-Apochromat Series produces images with saturated color and, thanks to the
numerous knife-edged baffles, it also displays an image with amazing contrast.
The TOA-130 is perfect for visual, CCD and classic astrophotography. The f/7.7 focal ratio with a 1000mm focal length is long
enough (using the optional LE-ED 2.8mm Takahashi ocular, for instance) for high magnification observations of the Moon and planets
and yet will produce a 2.5° field at 20x when used with the optional Takahashi flat field LE-50 2 “ ocular.
Ample back focus, over 200mm from the rear cell, has been designed into the system to permit the user to use a variety of CCD
cameras, color filter wheels and electronic focusers or film cameras.
