The best seller of the quintuplet series, the FRA300 60mm; It is an instrument suitable for astrophotography.

Thanks to the quintuplet spaced in the air, it provides a flattened field up to 40mm diagonally without the addition of further flatteners/reducers.

• Experience our best optical performance with EdgeHD’s aplanatic, flat field Schmidt-Cassegrain optics for pinpoint stars all the way to the edge of today’s largest imaging sensors and widest eyepieces
• Aluminum optical tube with tube vents featuring an integrated 50-mesh filter allows hot air to be released from behind the primary mirror. Mirror support knobs hold the mirror in place and reduce image shift during imaging
