Hoya's FCD-100 glass delivers a Strehl ratio of 0.97, a value normally found in much more expensive astrographs. Color correction and contrast are among the absolute best in this price range.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Carbon tube, large focuser<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The lightweight carbon tube has a transport length of only 55 cm with the dew shield retracted: a true travel scope. The Hexafoc 2.5-inch focuser with 1:10 fine adjustment offers 64 mm of free travel, so even larger sensors remain free of vignetting, with a filter wheel or flattener in the train.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">iEXOS-100 PMC-8 Wi-Fi GoTo<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The iEXOS-100 mount with PMC-8 control finds and tracks objects fully automatically via Wi-Fi and the free app. This set combines visual convenience with the tracking accuracy required for astrophotography with short to medium exposures. Visually meaningful up to approximately 200x magnification.<\/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 102\/714 FCD-100 carbon triplet<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hexafoc 2.5 inch focuser with 1:10 fine adjustment<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Retractable lens hood<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>iEXOS-100 PMC-8 Wi-Fi GoTo Mount<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tripod<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Counterweight<\/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: Astrophotographers and observers who want a complete, portable, top-class GoTo imaging setup in one go. Not for: those who already own a mount; the 127 Essential OTA then offers more aperture for the money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Specifications<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td>Optical design<\/td><td>Apochromat, FCD-100 triplet (Hoya)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Opening<\/td><td>102 mm<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Focal length<\/td><td>714 millimeters<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Opening ratio<\/td><td>f\/7<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Polystrehl<\/td><td>0,97<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Tube<\/td><td>Carbon fiber, transport length 55 cm<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Focuser<\/td><td>Hexafoc 2.5 inch with 1:10 fine adjustment<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Mount<\/td><td>iEXOS-100 PMC-8 Wi-Fi GoTo<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Controls<\/td><td>Fully automatic via app<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Are you in doubt about the right choice?
