ZWO FF107 APO - 107 mm f/7 APO Quadruplet Refractor - FF107-APO

The ZWO FF107 APO is a f/7 apochromatic refractor with a flat-field optical design...there is no need to add a field flattener to this system!  It is a pleasure to work with a system that does not require a separate field flattener; it eliminates the hassle of calculating the back focus distance and figuring out which spacers you require to achieve that distance for best focus.  Just add any accessories you need, focus carefully, and start shooting!

The FF107 has a 3+1 quadruplet lens structure.  The APO optics includes two ED lenses to effectively reduce chromatic aberration and enhance clarity and sharpness.  This 107 mm refractor supports full-frame imaging.  It comes with a 3.4" dual-speed rack & pinion focuser that sports a 360-degree rotator and comes with a 2" & 1.25" adapter.  M86, M68, M54 & M48 camera adapters are included, and the M48 adapter has a 2" female thread for installing filters.

The telescope OTA is white with red accents, and is CNC machined and anodized for strength and beauty.  A build in lens hood slides forward when you need protection from stray light and dew, but can be locked into place with thumb screws if you want to keep it from moving.

Perfect for Visual Use

The ZWO 107mm Quad Refractor is a nice choice for visual observations.  The FF107 accepts diagonals, eyepieces, and other visual accessories, and comes to perfect focus, unlike telescopes out there that can only be used for imaging.  The body weights just 5.7kg, or 12.6 pounds, and even when you add the tube rings, handle, and dovetail the whole system weighs 6.9kg, or just over 15 pounds!  

A Dream Scope for Imaging

Besides offering a flat field and great correction for chromatic aberration, the ZWO F107 supports full frame imaging with an image circle of 44 mm.  Stars are small and round with a central RMS radius of 3um.

Included Accessories

The ZWO FF107 comes with a beautiful red dual cradle ring with a handle on top.  the handle has a slot for attaching a guidescope or other accessories.  The cradle ring can easily be detached and re-attached in no time.  The FF107 ring attaches to a Vixen-style dovetail, which will fit into the Vixen saddle of a wide variety of mounts.  

A variety of camera adapters (M86, M68, M54 & M48) are included, and the M48 adapter has a female thread for installing 2" filters.  For DSLR imaging, a camera specific 48mm T-Ring is required, and is sold separately.
