Warning notes
- Check the solar filter before every solar observation and ensure that it is not damaged. Hold it against a strong light source to detect any possible cracks and/or holes. Do not use the telescope for solar observation, even if the solar filter is only slightly damaged. In this case, contact the manufacturer for the appropriate replacement parts.
- Always use the included solar filter when observing the sun. Make sure it is correctly attached to the telescope according to the instructions. The use of the solar filter is only intended in connection with this telescope.
- Never look at the sun through an eyepiece/telescope without a certified protection filter. A moon filter can never be used for solar observation. The moon filter is only suitable for moon observation. The solar filter must be mounted in front of the telescope opening, not at the eyepiece. Otherwise, the concentrated light beam through the optics will immediately destroy the filter foil, leading to severe eye damage, including permanent blindness.
- Check the secure fit of the solar filter before each solar observation. An accidental detachment from the objective opening can lead to immediate and permanent eye damage and blindness.
- If the solar filter cannot be securely attached to the tube, improve the fit by placing several self-adhesive felt strips or similar between the solar filter and the objective opening. Never use the solar filter if it cannot be properly mounted on the telescope. In such a case, always contact our customer service first.
- Be extremely cautious when observing the sun. A brief look through the unprotected optics will immediately cause severe eye damage, potentially leading to complete blindness.
- Children should not look at the sun through the telescope, even with the filter properly installed. Never leave children unsupervised.
- Never leave the optics unattended. Children and inexperienced adults could point the telescope at the sun without proper precautions and lose their eyesight.
- Do not observe the sun after eye surgeries or other eye conditions without prior medical consultation.
- Wrinkles/creases in the film are normal and do not indicate a product defect.
- Do not expose the device to high temperatures.

EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC ED APO 80mm f/6 FCD-100 Alu HEX
€1,249.00*
Highly corrected 80mm air-spaced triplet apochromat (with three lenses) and aluminium tube and a 2.5" high-precision HEXAFOC focuser. Apochromats are the ultimate choice in small to medium sized telescopes:
the combination of compactness, transportability, very high image
contrast and sharpness together with the possibility to make excellent
astrophotos cannot be bested. The advances in glass manufacturing during
the last few years have made true apochromats available to more
astronomy enthusiasts than ever before. The new Explore Scientific
FCD-100 Alu Hex
represents another major improvement in this field - the overall
correction (color and spherical) is setting new standards in this price
class. The optical design shows a polystrehl value of 0,97 indicating a
level of correction that is absolutely top of the line.This small
excellent apochromat is a very versatile telescope: the fast f-ratio
makes short exposure times possible. The high contrast and sharpness of
the image provide breathtaking views of large objects like the North
america nebula or the Andromeda galaxy as well as tack sharp planetary
images. The telescope is lightweight and compact - the dew shield slides
down the tube to minimize size for transportation. Revolutionary glass and precision
manufacturing created a telescope that offers observing joy on the
highest level. This does not only qualify this telescope as the ideal
travel scope, it is also the perfect choice for fast observations and
for astrophotography. The excellent 2,5" HEXAFOC focuser with 10:1 reduction is
perfect for this - the large inner diameter of 65mm prevents vignetting
by the focuser when the telescope is used for astrophotography with
large sensors.These very popular EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC Triplet ED APO Refractors we do offer in 3 different product lines:Essential Line: HOYA FCD-1 Glass lens, AL-Tube, 2.0" Rack&Pinion Focusser with 1:10, 2.0" Star Diagonal 99% Reflectivity (see Part No. 0112084(AL), 0112106(AL), 0112132(AL)), 0112155(CF + 3"FT)) Professional Line: HOYA FCD-100 Glas lens, AL/CF-Tube, 2.5" HEXAFOC Focusser with 1:10, 2.0" Star Diagonal 99% Reflectivity (see Part No. 0112086(AL), 0112108(AL), 0112109(CF), 0112134(AL), 0112135(CF))High-End Line: OHARA FPL-53 Glass lens, Carbon(CF) Tube, 3.0" Feather-Touch Focusser with 1:10, 2.0" Star Diagonal 99% Reflectivity (see Part No. 0112165(CF))SPECIFICATIONSAperture: 80mmFocal Length: 480mmFocal ratio: f/6Weigth: 2,6kgBackfocus: 150mm above 2" adaptorDesign: Apochromat with three lenses, two air spaces and FCD-100 glassSCOPE OF DELIVERY Optical tube with retractable dew-shield 2.5" HEX focuser with 1:10 gear reduction 2" Star Diagonal 99% reflectivity Universal dovetail - GP levelDust caps for front-lens and focuser Universal finder slot
