Skywatcher Esprit-100ED APO Triplet with 3" Rack-And-Pinion Focuser

The Skywatcher Professional ESPRIT APO refractor offers nearly perfect imaging quality without disturbing color fringes. Now this system is also becoming interesting for astro fotographers using heavy cameras with big sensors.

Teleskop Service upgrades this apo with a professional 3" focuser. Our TSFOCR30 is a rack & pinion system capable of a payload up to approx. 6 kg. Unlike the original focuser, bearing and drive system are decoupled from each other and operated by a skew geared drawtube.
