Vai al moduloAskar 60F – FlatField APO Quadruplet 60mm f/6.8
The Askar 60F is a premium compact apochromatic refractor designed for full-frame astrophotography without the need for additional correctors. Its optical system features an air-spaced APO quadruplet with ED glass, delivering excellent chromatic correction and a perfectly flat imaging field.
FlatField Optics for Full-Frame Sensors
With a native 44 mm image circle, the 60F fully supports modern DSLR and CMOS full-frame cameras. The integrated field flattener eliminates backfocus calculations—simply attach your camera, focus, and start imaging.
Optimized for Wide-Field Astrophotography
The combination of a 408 mm focal length and a 60 mm aperture (f/6.8) makes the Askar 60F ideal for large deep-sky targets such as nebulae, open clusters, and wide star fields. The corrected image remains sharp all the way to the edges of the sensor.
