William Optics 50mm Guidescope UniGuide Ultra: the all-around ultra-version guide scope
The William Optics UniGuide 50mm is the most versatile guidescope in the line: a fully multi-coated 50mm (2 inch) aperture doublet with a 200mm focal length (f/4) and a 5.7-degree field of view. Ample enough to always find a guide star quickly, with enough focal length for accurate guiding.
The Vixen/Synta-style dovetail rail slides directly into the carry handles of William Optics telescopes; at 460g (1 lb) and 265mm in length, the setup remains light and compact. This version is ultra.

RotoLock on M48
De 1,25 inch RotoLock klemt je guidecamera met een draai stevig en exact gecentreerd vast, ook met handschoenen. Onder de RotoLock zit een M48-draad voor cameras en accessoires met schroefaansluiting. Gangbare 1,25 inch guidecamera’s passen direct; controleer bij T-draadcamera’s de backfocus.
Focus and dew
The helical focusing on the front lens operates smoothly and holds focus from night to night. The retractable dew shield keeps the front lens free of condensation for longer.
