Description

12x80 Angled Finderscope - 90° - Erect Image - illuminator optional - including finder bracket
High End angled finderscope with very good image quality. Uses 1.25" eyepieces. Erect image.

The TSFRE1280Ws is more than just a simple finderscope. It is almost a complete telescope in its own right. Many hundred deep sky objects are directly visible with this instrument.

Of course this finder has many possible applications. The most important one is deep sky observing with large telescopes. With standard 50mm finders it might prove too difficult to locate the objects you wish to observe.

Advantages and Features of the FRE 1280 W:

-- Sharp, high contrast image. Multicoated achromatic optics.
-- Easy focusing with helical focuser for the eyepiece
-- 1.25" adaptation for standard eyepieces. You can use almost all 1.25" eyepieces with this instrument.
-- robust CNC machined finder bracket with quick release function.
-- With the optional illuminator you can illuminate the reticle of the supplied eyepiece.
-- Erect image - not upside down or mirror reversed.
-- The viewing position can be rotated 360° without unlocking the finder in the adjustable bracket.

Specifications of the FRE 1280 W:

-- Aperture ... 80mm
-- Focal Length ... 330mm
-- Magnification with the supplied 26mm eyepiece ... 12x
-- Apparent field of view with the supplied eyepiece ... 55°
-- True field of view on the sky ... 4.5° (9x the diameter of the full moon!)
-- Weight without bracket ... 1047 grams
-- Weight with bracket ... 1406 grams

Adaptation of the finder base to the telescope:

The finder base has three 4mm holes along the center axis. The distance between the holes is 20mm center to center. It is possible to adapt it to most telescopes using at least one of the three screw holes.

A big advantage: Accepts 1.25" eyepieces:

This finder accepts standard 1.25" eyepieces. You can easily reach higher magnifications up to about 100x with the proper eyepieces. The optical quality is very good, which allows you to use the finder for rich field deep sky observing.

Advantage for Astro Imaging:

If you have a camera with a small sensor you know that centering the object in the camera's field of view can be tricky. A finder with 8x magnification is not precise enough. By using the right eyepieces you can center the object very precisely with this finder.

26mm Reticle Eyepiece - illuminator available optionally:

This high quality eyepiece is worth an own paragraph. It is a very nice wide angle eyepiece with a precisely engraved crosshair. An optional illuminator can be screwed in from the side.

.................................. Illuminator for the 26mm Reticle Eyepiece

Specifications of the eyepiece:

-- Barrel size ... 1.25"
-- Focal length ... 26mm
-- Apparent field of view ... 55°
-- Thread for standard illuminator
-- fully multi-coated

Hands-on advice from Teleskop-Service:

You can use the eyepiece on your main telescope as well! It is well suited for centering stars precisely during goto alignment. It could even be used for photo guiding short focal lengths.
