Without a flattener, you often see distortion, especially with fast refractors and larger camera sensors. This flattener eliminates that problem, giving your photos a professional look without additional post-processing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.telescoop.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/William-Optics-Flattener-Flat73A-voor-ZenithStar-73-5.jpg\" alt=\"William Optics Flat73A flattener front view with gold cap and engraved logo\" class=\"wp-image-34319\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Flat73A is specially designed for the ZenithStar 73. You screw it directly onto the focuser, sturdy and stable. No need to fiddle with loose adapters or shaky connections. Everything is fixed, so your camera will never sink during a long exposure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Adjustment is simple. Turn the adjustable ring until the distance is correct and tighten it. This will keep your image plane flat, keeping every star crisp and bright. You can even screw your M48 filters directly onto the flattener. Useful if you change filters often or want a compact setup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.telescoop.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/William-Optics-Flattener-Flat73A-voor-ZenithStar-73-2.jpg\" alt=\"William Optics Flat73A side with scale and set distance for ZenithStar 73\" class=\"wp-image-34322\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Want to switch from visual to photography? Simply unscrew the end piece and mount your camera via the M48 connector. You remain flexible whether you use a DSLR, system camera or other astro camera.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Flat73A ensures that your ZenithStar 73 does exactly what you want it to do: take sharp, clean astrophotos without distortion. You get more detail, a more beautiful field of view, and a system that is reliable and future-proof.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Specifications<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Capacity<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>Feature<\/th><th>Description<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Connection on camera side<\/td><td>M48<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Telescope connection<\/td><td>M63<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>General<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>Feature<\/th><th>Description<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Type<\/td><td>Flatteners, Correctors, Reducers<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Design<\/td><td>Flattener<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Total weight (kg)<\/td><td>0,32<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>William Optics Flat73A comes with M63 telescope connector, M48 camera thread, adjustable back focus, scale and gold cap - designed specifically for the ZenithStar 73.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":97659,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"product_brand":[643],"product_cat":[56,469,3107,3105,589,3104,592],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-34300","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_brand-william-optics","product_cat-telescoop-accessoires","product_cat-astro-fotografie","product_cat-flatteners","product_cat-optische-accessoires","product_cat-optische-accessoires-v1","product_cat-overige-astrofotografie-accessoires","product_cat-reducers-flatteners","product_shipping_class-licht","first","instock","taxable","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-simple"],"bundled_by":[],"bundle_stock_status":"instock","bundle_stock_quantity":null,"bundle_virtual":false,"bundle_layout":"","bundle_add_to_cart_form_location":"","bundle_editable_in_cart":false,"bundle_sold_individually_context":"","bundle_item_grouping":"","bundle_min_size":"","bundle_max_size":"","bundle_price":[],"bundled_items":[],"bundle_sell_ids":[],"acf":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":107604,"url":"https:\/\/www.telescoop.nl\/en\/televue-tele-pod-advanced-azimutale-montering\/","url_meta":{"origin":34300,"position":0},"title":"TeleVue Tele-Pod Advanced \u2013 Azimuth Mount","author":"Abdullah Ibrar","date":"28-04-2026","format":false,"excerpt":"TeleVue Tele-Pod Advanced \u2013 azimutale montering wordt geleverd met aluminium statief, transporttas en biedt soepele bediening voor lichte telescopen. \u00a0","rel":"","context":"Similar post","block_context":{"text":"Similar post","link":""},"img":{"alt_text":"TeleVue Montering Tele-Pod Advanced close-up van de azimutale montagekop op zwart geanodiseerd aluminium statief met blauwe accentring op witte achtergrond","src":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.telescoop.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/TeleVue-Montering-Tele-Pod-Advanced-1.jpg?resize=350%2C200&ssl=1","width":350,"height":200,"srcset":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.telescoop.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/TeleVue-Montering-Tele-Pod-Advanced-1.jpg?resize=350%2C200&ssl=1 1x, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.telescoop.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/TeleVue-Montering-Tele-Pod-Advanced-1.jpg?resize=525%2C300&ssl=1 1.5x, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.telescoop.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/TeleVue-Montering-Tele-Pod-Advanced-1.jpg?resize=700%2C400&ssl=1 2x"},"classes":[]},{"id":105023,"url":"https:\/\/www.telescoop.nl\/en\/levenhuk-blitz-50-base\/","url_meta":{"origin":34300,"position":1},"title":"Levenhuk Blitz 50 BASE \u2013 50\/600 Refractor","author":"Abdullah Ibrar","date":"01-04-2026","format":false,"excerpt":"The Levenhuk Blitz 50 BASE \u2013 50\/600 Refractor comes with 6mm and 20mm eyepieces, a 3x Barlow lens, a 5x24 finder scope, a diagonal mirror, and an aluminum tripod.
