For Sale: 94mm Brandon f/7 Apochromatic Refractor. From the original Vernonscope Brochure: “The heart of our tube assembly is a 99mm O.D. Christen triplet lens, comprised of the best glass type available. Each objective is hand corrected on all six surfaces and coated with hard MgF2 on both air-to-glass surfaces. A hi-tech lens cement bonds the elements so no moisture or dust will ever appear internally. The lens has an actual clear aperture of 3.7 inches (94mm). The tube I.D. is precisely baffled and blackened to eliminate any stray light. Our deluxe 2” focuser and sliding tube (within the focuser) have a combined travel of 8”. A unique locking device secures the focusing tube.”
This scope has one of only 500 triplet APO objectives made by Roland Christen for Brandon. Includes OTA, Field Tripod with Alt-Az Mount, Diagonal and original Finder Scope. No eyepiece included.
If you are looking for a pristine refractor, this scope is not for you. I am the third owner and the scope has spent the past 8 years mounted on my 12” LX200 via Losmandy rings and dovetail plate. The OTA has had some touch-up and the chrome is not immaculate but is in good condition. If you are looking for a quality APO at a real bargain price, this is the scope for you. Price: $800.00 shipped.
