The 160 mm triplet delivers high-contrast, color-aberration-free images at a 1120 mm focal length (f\/7): detailed deep-sky shots and planet images with a large image scale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Built for a fixed setup<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Clamping rings, a Losmandy dovetail, and a handle make the mount solid and repeatable on a heavy equatorial mount. The adapters for 2-inch and 1.25-inch allow for visual use in addition to photography, and the transport case protects the optics during transport. Expect a mount in the EQ6 class or higher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>In the box<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Optical tube 160\/1120 triplet<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tube Rings<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Losmandy dovetail<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Handle<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Adapters for 2 inch and 1.25 inch<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Transport case<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">For whom yes, for whom no<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the advanced photographer or observatory seeking refractor performance in the 160mm class.
