EON 72mm ED Apochromatic Refractor
Code:- 9781
- Ultra-portable, premium-quality telescope for visual use or imaging, day or night.
- 430mm focal length and f/ 6.0 speed make the EON 72ED ideal for long-exposure astrophotography.
- 72mm doublet lens made with FPL-51 "ED" glass that virtually eliminates chromatic aberration.
- Machined aluminum 2" Crayford focuser has dual-speed focus knobs with 11:1 fine-focus ratio.
- Retractable lens shade, dovetail mounting bar, holes for finder scope base, carrying case included.
The EON 72ED houses apochromatic optics made from extra-low dispersion glass in a machined aluminum tube assembly with deluxe features from end to end. The 72mm air-spaced doublet lens is made with one element of FPL-51 "ED" glass that virtually eliminates chromatic aberration. The 430mm focal length provides a zippy f-ratio of 6.0, a sweet spec for long-exposure, wide-field astrophotography with DSLRs or CCD cameras. Fully multi-coated optics maximize light transmission, and interior baffles and a retracting lens shade/dew shield eliminate unwanted glare to deliver crisp, high-contrast images. |

EON 80mm ED Apochromatic Refractor
Code:- 9927
- Fast f/6.25 optics and all-machined, premium mechanics make for an awesome imaging telescope.
- 80mm doublet lens crafted with FPL-53 "ED" glass to virtually eliminate chromatic aberration.
- Machined aluminum 2" Crayford focuser has dual-speed focus knobs with 11:1 fine-focus ratio.
- 23% more light grasp than the EON 72ED, yet at 15.5" long is still extremely portable.
- Retractable lens shade, dovetail mounting bar, finder scope base, and carrying case included.
The EON 80ED is really an imager's dream scope. The 500mm focal length yields an f-ratio
of 6.25, faster than the standard ED80, which is f/7.5. So the EON 80ED gives
you brighter images, a wider field of view, and allows shorter exposures of
deep-sky objects. The 80mm air-spaced doublet lens is crafted with one element
of FPL-53 extra-low dispersion, "ED", optical glass, which virtually eliminates the effects of chromatic aberration. All air-to-glass lens surfaces are fully multi-coated for maximum light throughput. Baffles inside the optical tube, glare threads in the focuser drawtube, and a retracting lens shade/dew shield eliminate unwanted glare to deliver crisp, high-contrast images. And the EON 80ED brings 23% more light grasp to the task than the EON 72ED, yet at 15.5" with the lens shade retracted is only 3" longer, so still extremely portable. |

EON 120mm ED Apochromatic Refractor
Code:- 9925
- A breakthrough in performance and value, our biggest EON will delight the avid observer or imager.
- 120mm doublet lens crafted with FPL-53 "ED" glass to virtually eliminate chromatic aberration.
- Focal length of 900mm (f/7.5) provides excellent magnification and resolving power.
- Machined aluminum 2" Crayford focuser has dual-speed focus knobs with 11:1 fine-focus ratio.
- Retractable lens shade, tube rings and mounting plate, finder scope base, carrying case included.
The EON 120ED's optics consist of a fully multi-coated, air-spaced 120mm objective
doublet lens of exceptional quality, containing one element of FPL-53 extra-low
dispersion — "ED" — optical glass. The ED glass virtually eliminates the color fringing around bright objects resulting from chromatic aberration. Images are crisp, sharp, and color-pure, even at magnifications upwards of 250x. The big 120mm objective has a 900mm focal length (f/7.5), a combination that provides excellent high-contrast resolving power, with enough magnification to home in on smaller targets. Baffles inside the optical tube, glare threads in the focuser drawtube, and a retracting lens shade/dew shield eliminate unwanted glare. |

Orion 120mm ED Apochromatic Refractor OTA
Code:- 9976
This big-aperture, premium f/7.5 APO takes imaging to a new level of excitement and affordability
The 120ED is a breakthrough in performance at this low price, offering optical quality, workmanship, and attention to detail you'd expect to find on scopes costing thousands more. If you've shied away from high-end refractors because of the cost, you should consider the 120ED.
Superb apochromatic optics set the 120ED apart. The 900mm focal length (f/7.5) is great for planetary work and fast enough for faint galaxies and nebulas. FPL-53 extra-low dispersion (ED) glass in one of the two objective lens elements and multi-coating on all air-to-glass surfaces means light passes to the eyepiece or camera without color fringing. Besides providing more light-grasp for deep-sky imaging &emdash 43% more than a 100mm scope &emdash the optics easily handle high magnification.
Included are a 2" Crayford-style focuser that accepts 1.25" or 2" accessories, aluminum focus knobs, and a molded-in dovetail base that accepts any Orion finder scope. One year limited warranty. |
