The 1.0x flattener does not change the focal ratio of the telescope itself. After being attached to the Askar 185APO, it maintained a focal ratio of 7. The flattener corrects field curvature and coma, resulting in flatter field edges and finer star points.

The 0.8x reducer can lower the focal ratio of the Askar 185APO to F5.6. This is a standard gearbox with field flattening capability. A shorter focal ratio allows the OTA to have a wider field of view and faster exposure times, making it suitable for capturing large areas of nebulae, star clusters and faint, fast-moving celestial objects.

The 1.0x flattener does not change the focal ratio of the telescope itself. After attaching it to the Askar 140APO, it still maintained a focal ratio of 7. The flattener corrects field curvature and coma, resulting in flatter field edges and finer star points.

The 0.8x reducer can bring the focal ratio of the Askar 140APO to F5.6. This is a standard gearbox with field flattening capability. A shorter focal ratio allows the OTA to have a wider field of view and faster exposure times, making it suitable for capturing large areas of nebulae, star clusters and faint, fast-moving celestial objects.

The 1.0x flattener does not change the focal ratio of the telescope. After attaching it to the Askar 120APO, it maintained a focal ratio of 7. The reducer corrects field curvature and coma, resulting in flatter field edges and sharper star points.

The 0.8x reducer can bring the focal ratio of the Askar 120APO to F5.6. This is a standard gearbox with field flattening capability. A shorter focal ratio allows the telescope to have a wider field of view and faster exposure times, making it suitable for capturing large areas of nebulae, star clusters and faint, fast-moving celestial objects.

The 1x flattener does not change the focal ratio of the telescope. After being attached to the Askar 103APO, it still maintained a focal length of f/6.8. The flattener corrects field curvature and coma, resulting in flatter field edges and finer star points.

The 0.6x reducer can bring the focal ratio of the Askar 103APO to F4, also providing field flattening. Askar 103APO adopts a detachable tube design, where the back of the tube can be removed when using the 0.6x reducer, allowing the telescope to have the length needed to achieve an F4 focal ratio.

The 0.8x reducer can bring the focal ratio of the Askar 103APO to F5.4. This is a standard reducer with field flattening capabilities. A shorter focal ratio allows the telescope to have a wider field of view and faster exposure times, making it suitable for capturing large areas of nebulae, star clusters, and faint, fast-moving celestial objects.

Askar's FMA180 PRO is a triplet APO refractor with double ED glass for excellent correction. The high-quality lenses produce a high-contrast, pure color image and meet the highest demands in astrophotography and observation.
