REFRACTORS
For economy, up to 6” aperture we recommend the SkyWatcher range. We manufacture higher quality and longer focal length versions ourselves. The lens is held in an adjustable cell in a correctly baffled aluminium tube (the baffles are to eliminate glancing internal reflections) which can be powder coated and which carries a suitable finder and Crayford focuser. The tube assembly can be carried on one of the SkyWatcher equatorial heads.
Achromats and apohhromats are available up to 10” aperture.
