EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC Hexafoc 2.5 adaptor for 3" 0.7x Corrector

The EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC 3" 0.7x Reducer/corrector, reduces a compatible telescope's focal length by a factor of 0.7x (for around f/8) and 0.8x (for around f/10) respectively. The reducer/corrector not only reduces the focal length but also flattens the field. Although originally developed for the Explore Scientific ED-APOs 127mm and 152mm, the reducer can be used with many systems - for example with the Explore Scientific ED-APOs 102mm and 165mm (please note, this will not work on the Explore Scientific 80mm ED Apo refractors though). With certain telescope focal lengths, a slight restriction of the correction at the edge of the image field can be expected when using full-frame sensors. This unit comes with 3" barrel adaptor for direct focuser thread M54x0.75 (the standard focuser thread of the Explore Scientific Essential series of ED Apos) and T2 camera adaptor. This reducer/corrector features a free aperture of 65mm, so that it can be used even with cameras that have a large sensor - if the telescope allows for this. Note: As previously mentioned, this Reducer/corrector comes with a screw on ring, which fits the standard focuser thread of the Explore Scientific Essential series of ED Apos. For telescopes which are equipped with the 2.5" HEX Focuser, the optional screw-on adapter part no: 0510366 is needed. Other telescopes, not in the Explore Scientific range, with standard 2" push-fit focusers will need the Explore Scientific 2" Adaptor for 3" Corrector - part no: 0510364 to get this reducer correctly fitted.

This adapter replaces the M42x0.75 Adapter for CCD Camera that comes standard with the EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC 3-inch Field Flattener/0.7x Focal Reducer. Allows the connection of a camera via M48x0.75 thread. The larger free inner diameter than T2/M42 effectively prevents vignetting when using a full format camera. The illumination of the camera sensor is therefore optimised.FEATURESAllows the connection of a camera via M48x0.75 threadLarger free inner diameter than T2/M42No vignetting by using cameras with full frame sensor Fits to EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC 3" Flattener 0.7 x ReducerMade of black anodized aluminumSCOPE OF DELIVERYAdapter with M48x0,75 thread

Set of 5 extension tubes with T2 thread on both sides for exact distances and secure hold of cameras for astrophotography. Also comes with SC to T2 thread adapter.In astrophotography, most cameras are connected to a telescope via a T2 thread (M42x0.75), the most popular international standard. However, in many cases, T2 and T2-ring adapters for connecting telescope focusers to a camera are not sufficient, as specific distances must also be observed. This is especially important when using correctors, reducers or flatteners. This extension tube set, which consists of 5 mm, 7.5 mm, 10 mm, 15 mm and 30 mm tubes, will allow you to obtain almost any distance using the corresponding combination. Each tube has a T2 interior thread on one side and a T2 exterior thread on the other side.Most telescopes either include a T2 thread adapter, or the eyepiece can be used with a simple T2 thread adapter with a 2 plug-in diameter (item no. 0510365).However, Maksutov-Cassegrain, Schmidt-Cassegrain, ACF or RitcheyChrétien telescopes may use a so-called SC thread. To allow you to use this extension tube set with these telescopes, the set also includes an SD to T2 thread adapter.FEATURES5 T2 tubes with lengths from 5 mm to 30 mmCombination of tubes allows you to obtain distances of 5 mm to 67.5 mmFor exact camera distances in astrophotographyDELIVERY CONTENT5x T2 extension tubes (5/7.5/10/15/30 mm)1x SC to T2 thread adapter

With the introduction of the 68° Series we are pleased to make two important improvements in eyepiece manufacture, the first being 15 layer Enhanced Multi-layer Deposition (EMD™) coatings on all glass-to-air surfaces to gain maximum contrast, and waterproofing the eyepiece with the use of Argon gas purging instead of standard Nitrogen gas. Although Nitrogen is a fine choice that will last for many years, Argon is a larger molecule that maintains its protective properties over a wider range of temperatures, and is even more resistant to diffusion thereby further extending the protective waterproof environment of the eyepiece body. Through computer-optimized design, a careful selection of optical glasses, and enhanced multi-layer deposition coatings, the Explore Scientific 68° Series™ eyepieces produce long eye-relief and ensure high image-correction, a flat field, and high contrast across the entire image field. An excellent choice for those who make extended visual studies of detail with subtle variations of brightness, and for those who must wear glasses while observing. All 68° Series eyepieces are fully EMD (Enhanced Multi-Layer Deposition) coated and edge-blackened to produce superior contrast.

This weather station with outdoor sensor also provides internet-based data on visibility and cloud cover. Want to share your readings? Simply publish them via Wi-Fi to ProWeatherLive or Weathercloud- and connect with the global weather community. 8-in-1 outdoor sensor: compact, precise, reliable This clever all-rounder measures temperature, humidity, wind speed and direction, rainfall, UV level, light intensity and WBGT. The large adjustable solar panel keeps it running, while 3 AA batteries (not included) step in when sunlight is limited. With a range of up to 150 m and a durable, weatherproof housing, you can set it up just where you need it for the most accurate results. WBGT - stay safe in the heat When the mercury soars, heat can take a toll on your body. That’s where the Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (WBGT) comes in. It combines three factors - air temperature, mean radiant temperature and wet-bulb temperature - to calculate heat stress accurately. If the wet-bulb temperautre value stays above 35 °C, your body starts absorbing heat from its surroundings, which can quickly become dangerous. Whether you’re training, gardening or enjoying the outdoors, this digital weather station gives you the exact WBGT reading at all times. The heat stress index also provides a simple warning, so you know when to take a break. Indoor climate check included A healthy climate isn’t just for outside. The base station also measures indoor temperature and humidity via its built-in thermometer and hygrometer. The handy comfort indicator lets you know straight away whether your home or office needs airing. It also tracks air pressure, a reliable sign of changing weather. Detailed weather analysis with alerts This garden weather station doesn’t stop at the basics. It also calculates feels-like temperature, heat index, dew point and wind chill, plus shows you wind strength using the Beaufort scale. The max/min memory highlights local weather trends, and with ProWeatherLive alerts you’ll always be prepared for what’s coming. With its rain gauge and wealth of features, it’s like having your own personal weather assistant.
