Vixen - VC200L 200mm Catadioptrical Reflector Telescope OTA

The VC 200L is an 8” f/9.0 highly corrected, highly specialized telescope for astro imaging. With
its elaborate aspherical optical design it achieves an excellent image correction throughout the
large illuminated field. (42mm diameter fully illuminated)

The VC200L is designed around Astro Imaging. Even at the edge of the 35mm film format (larger CCD
chips) stars are sharp ( smaller than 15 micrometers This is smaller than the resolution of fine
quality CCD cameras, which means that the telescope does not limit the image quality.

With the f/6.4 reducer you get much shorter exposure times. The reducer is a highly recommended
optional accessory.

The basic configuration already contains a piggy-back camera holder. You can then take photos
both through the telescope and using a telephoto lens parallel to the main instrument or you can
use the VC200L for guiding while the camera sits on top.
