RASA 8 Inch Rowe Ackermann Schmidt Astrograph For Astrophotography With Optically Perfect Field No Curvature Or Coma Ultra Stable Focusing With Linear Bearings Works Great With Color CMOS Small CCD And Mirrorless Cameras
✔️ Designed for CMOS, smaller CCD, and mirrorless cams
This lightweight imaging instrument delivers a wide, optically perfect field with no curvature or coma. It’s designed for astrophotography with color CMOS cameras, smaller CCDs, or mirrorless bodies, delivering sharp edges across APS-C sensors and beyond.
✅ Optically perfect field: no curvature, coma, astigmatism, or chromatic aberration across APS-C sensors
✅ Ultra-stable focus: precision linear ball bearings minimize image shift
✅ Built-in filter mount and optical path integration for filters
✅ Efficient cooling: 12V DC MagLev fan speeds cooling and reduces dust
✅ CGE dovetail mounting rail for easy integration with CGE rigs
✅ Wide spectral performance: 390-800 nm for sharp images across color bands
✅ Lightweight at about 17 lb for portable imaging setups
💡 What is an Ackermann Schmidt astrograph used for in astrophotography? An astrograph is a specialized instrument designed for wide-field, fast imaging with a flat field and minimal optical errors. - Wide-field imaging with sharp edges across large sensor formats - Compatible with color CMOS, small CCD, and mirrorless cameras - Fast f/2 system enables bright exposures in dark skies - Built-in cooling and filter mount simplifies imaging workflows
