This is essentially the same scope as the ES-ED10207-01 but offering better quality optics (i.e. apochromatic). We use Hoya FCD100 optics which is very similar in characteristics as Ohara FPL-53.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRelying on technological innovation, Explore successfully launched mass production of high-performance optical glass at the apex of the FCD family. Combining it with optical glass of high refractive index yields advanced chromatic aberration correction. Hoya FCD100 is considered the best glass ever produced by Hoya.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHaving a true Apochromatic diffraction-limited optical design and sized to encourage spontaneous stargazing sessions, this high-quality telescope is a perfect grab-and-go instrument for exploring the skies. Featuring an air-spaced triplet optical design that virtually eliminates chromatic aberrations, this telescope generates brilliant high-contrast images by combining genuine HOYA FCD100 extra-low dispersion (ED) glass and proprietary EMD enhanced multi-layer coatings on all optical surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition, this amazing little scope also includes a 2.5\" Hexagonal focuser with very rigid design and strong support. Up to 10 lb of gear can be loaded onto this focuser. Although it is a standout telescope on its own, the 102 mm also is compact enough to mount on a larger telescope, which can add versatility to your astrophotography experience by separating the guiding and imaging duties.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ccenter\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/center\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eScope Description:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eED102 mm FCD100 Series Aluminum Air-Spaced Triplet Refractor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eItem Number:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFCD100-10207-01\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFocal Length:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e714 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFocal Ratio:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ef\/7\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLimiting Magnitude:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12.5\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eResolution:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.14 arcsecond\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTube Length w\/Dew Shield:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e30.5\"; 774 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTube Length w\/out Dew Shield:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e23.75\"; 603 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiameter:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e119 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12 lb (5.4 kg)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDovetail:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVixen type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Explore Scientific","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":16325994689,"sku":"EXP-FCD100-10207-02","price":1494.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0851\/2766\/files\/FCD100-10207-01.webp?v=1776459109","url":"https:\/\/khanscope.com\/en-fr\/products\/explore-scientific-ed102-classic-wht-f-7-air-spaced-trplt-fcd100-10207-01","provider":"Khan Scope Centre","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
