Larger Than 100MM Binoculars ?/ Please read!

Posted By Markus Ludes
My global offer for one Dual Achro 120/600 Ziel including AZ2 standard fork mount is US $ 4,990.

It have interchangable eyepiece possibility , so you can use any UHC or O-III Filter with any 1.25" or 2" eyepiece

how about that ?

TMB Fluorite vs SD Objectives?

Posted By Markus Ludes
The SD are made by the glasmaking company who is monopolist and do not sell the Super ED, but they have no interested to make the small 80 mm. The second manufactor makes the 80 mm, since he could not get the Super ED he is using Fluorite, the final results are the same, just diffrent material is used

New TMB SuperMonocentric

Posted By Markus Ludes
the images show the 6 mm, the lens is pretty small, but on day time and night time for me as non eyeglaswearer pretty easy to use.

what does triplet mean?

Posted By Markus Ludes
this triplet achromat use a doupletwith close airspace and a rear lens in same same with a bit wider spacing. Correspondance to the manufactors infos this help them to get a bit flatter field and do a bit better controll on chromaticle aberration.

Personaly I do not offer it as a high end scope, but as a nice widefield scope. In germany its far less expensive than a Skywatcher 102/500 douplet, espacily our chinese made version comes with rings, 50 mm finder, 2" diagonal and a Plössl eyepiece.

Its a good scope for low power wide observing and black and white imaging.

Today a german customer who got such a baby reported he used it also for Planets with good results

FCT-76 performance

Posted By Markus Ludes
Its not the best 3" scope in excsiting , but maybe the most collectable and expensive 3" scope. Its a fast triplet, so yes you can see some color at very high power. If you like to see pur white image at that power, than you shall switch to the real best 3" apo in excistence, a TMB 80 mm Triplet Fluorite, it shows mirror like colorfree images of highest contrast
