APOchromatic Tubes
Apochromatic optical tubes are apochromatic refractors designed to provide superior color correction compared to achromatic systems. By using special low-dispersion glass elements and advanced optical designs, chromatic aberration is significantly reduced, resulting in high-contrast, color-accurate images.
They are particularly suited for deep sky astrophotography and high-quality visual observation, where optical precision, sharpness and aberration control are essential.
Why choose an apochromatic refractor?
An apochromatic refractor uses ED or equivalent low-dispersion glass to bring multiple wavelengths to the same focal point, virtually eliminating color fringing even on high-contrast targets such as the Moon and planets.
In astronomical astrophotography, this results in pinpoint stars, natural color reproduction and easier post-processing. When paired with dedicated field flatteners or focal reducers, apochromatic optical tubes represent one of the most balanced solutions for medium and wide-field imaging.
