Schmidt like performance

click on image to return to AG12 specs

A whopping 2.6deg diagonal high resolution field of view!

Image quality and field size with a modern large sensor produces results
that were once the domain of Schmidt cameras at professional observatories.
Here presented in negative (reminiscent of the photographic plate era) intricate fine
detail comes alive across an incredibly wide field of view.

If you are interested in one of these scopes contact me at: m.sidonio@bigpond.com


other sizes: small medium large original auto
