TS-PHOTON 6" F4 Advanced Newtonian Telescope with Carbon Tube

TS-PHOTON 154/600 mm Advanced Newtonian with Carbon Tube for astrophotography and observing

Astrophotography is easy for you with this compact Newtonian from the TS-PHOTON series. Due to the focal ratio of f/4, this astrograph provides pure speed and therefore short exposure times. Of course, we also offer the matching coma corrector TS SUPERFLAT. Thus this PHOTON Newtonian becomes a very good astrograph.

With approx. 5 kg weight and only 530 mm length, this Photon Newtonian is an ideal travel telescope. For wide field observations, you can even mount the telescope on a good photo tripod. The dovetail bar provides the matching 1/4" photo thread at its base.

Of course, the rich field Newtonian is best placed on a good astronomical mount, for example the EQ3-2 from Skywatcher or a good GoTo mount. Then there is nothing more to prevent a fulfilled astronomical viewing session.

The advantages of the carbon composite tube:

The TS-PHOTON Newtonian comes with a high-quality carbon composite tube. Beside the weight advantage of approximately 0.5 kg, the main advantage is the better stability of the focus when the temperature changes. That is imortant for astrophotography. Then the temperature falls, metal contracts and the focus moves. Readjusting the sharpness becomes necessary. This combination of tube and mirror makes readjusting the sharpness usually obsolete even for long-term exposures. The images become sharper.

General information and features of the TS-PHOTON Newtonian telescopes:

Fast parabolic optics with outstanding contrast and very good sharpness for planetary and deep-sky observation.

High-quality 2" MONORAIL focuser with 1:10 dual speed for 2" and 1.25" accessories.

Focus position perfect for DSLR and other cameras with correctors like TS GPU Superflat or Baader MPCC

All popular 1.25" and 2" eyepieces can be used without problems.

Brighter image through enhanced 94% reflectivity of primary and secondary mirror.

Motor focus can be retrofitted at any time.

A 0.5 mm thin stainless steel spider provides stability. Astrophotographers will envy you for the delicate and sharp spikes around bright stars.

Adjustable primary mirror cell and secondary cell completely made of metal.

More joy in astrophotography through optimal field correction - advisory service from Teleskop-Service

Only a good coma corrector turns this Newtonian into a true astrograph. Our recommendation is the TSGPU corrector which is perfect for this telescope. it will offer you highest sharpness in the entire field, only with the TSGPU (see accessory recommendations) this Newtonian turns into a true astrograph.

The working distance from the M48 thread is 55 mm. With a T-ring, you are automatically at the right distance for astrophotography with DSLR cameras. We can offer you suitable adaptions for your astro camera anytime within the context of our consultation.
