Warning notes
- General safety instructions DANGER Risk of suffocation! Improper use of this product can result in suffocation, especially for children. Therefore, carefully observe the following safety instructions. Keep packaging materials (plastic bags, rubber bands, etc.) away from children! There is a risk of suffocation! Keep cords, ribbons, and similar materials away from children! They could accidentally strangle themselves and suffocate! NOTE Risk of material damage! Improper handling can damage the device and/or accessories. Therefore, only use the device according to the following safety instructions. Do not dismantle the device! In the case of a defect, contact your dealer. They will contact the service center and may send the device in for repair.
- 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.
- 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 expose the device to high temperatures.

Vixen Coma Corrector PH for R200SS Newtonian
€599.00*
The Vixen corrector PH is a 3-element Wynne corrector for demanding applications. Designed for the Vixen R200SS Newtonian reflector, but also suitable for other optics with similar specifications.The optical design consists of 3 lenses in 3 groups. The corrector provides excellent correction of system-induced coma of parabolic mirrors and the resulting spherical aberration. The corrected field has a diameter of 44 mm, making it suitable for the 24x36 mm format (full-frame DSLR/CCD cameras). This guarantees razor-shape images across the entire field. The lens surfaces are coated with a cutting-edge 99.9% anti-reflective AS coating, which is also used for Vixen's flagship VSD100F3.8.Turn your Vixen R200SS reflector telescope into the perfect astrograph!FEATURESPremium coma corrector for the R 200SS Newton refelctor 3 lens systems in 3 groups, guarantees absolute colour purity and sharp stars to the edge of the field of viewImage illumination up to 44 mm for full-frame imagesReduces the focal length of the R 200SS from 800 mm to 760 mm 1:3.8Also suitable for visual observations with an eyepiece adapterWeight: 175 gDELIVERY CONTENTComa correctorDust caps on front and back

BRESSER 45° Amici Prism 1.25'' for MESSIER MCX/MC Telescopes
€49.00*
An amici prism allows for a comfortable 45° viewing position and creates an erect image without left-right reversal. This makes it especially suitable for nature observations but it can also be very helpful with astronomical observations. Particularly beginners may find it easier to orientate in the sky when they compare the view through the telescope with what they can see with their naked eyes.With this amici prism an astronomical telescope can be used as a powerful spotting scope.Suitable for Maksutov-Cassegrain style telescopes with threaded M35x1mm visual back adapter:item no.: 4701102 BRESSER MESSIER MCX-102 GoTo Telescope AZ/EQitem no.: 4701127 BRESSER MESSIER MCX-127 GoTo Telescope AZ/EQitem no.: 4890125 BRESSER MESSIER MC-90/1250 optical tubeitem no.: 4810140 BRESSER MESSIER MC-100/1400 optical tubeitem no.: 4827190 BRESSER MESSIER MC-127/1900 optical tubeFEATURESfits to BRESSER MESSIER MCX/MC telescopescomfortable eye relief for refractor telescopes45°- viewing position and image without left-right reversalastronomical telescope turns to a powerful spotting scopefor use with 1.25'' (31:7mm) eyepiecesSCOPE OF DELIVERY45° Amici Prism M35x1mm to 1.25''/31.7mm

Vixen SDP Focal Reducer 0,8x
€349.00*
Focal Reducer for the SDP65SS AstrographDeveloped exclusively for the SDP65SS, this focal reducer shortens the focal length by a factor of 0.8× and
lowers the focal ratio from f/5.5 to f/4.4. In practice, the focal length is reduced from 360 mm to 288 mm, enabling a much wider field of view.The advanced optical design uses 2 elements in 2 groups with a multi-coating for high light transmission.
The reducer illuminates a 30 mm image circle, covering the APS-C format at over 90 % right into the corners.
Even at the extreme edge of a 44 mm full-frame sensor, it maintains ≈ 70 % light intensity while keeping
distortion low—for sharp, clean star images across the frame.
FEATURES
Focal length: SDP65SS 360 mm (f/5.5) → 288 mm (f/4.4)
Optical design: 2 groups / 2 elements
Coating: Multi-coating
Connection (telescope side): M48 × 0.75, internal thread
Connection (camera side): M56 × 0.75, internal thread
Filter thread: M48
