Details
The HAC125DX Minigraph is a compact, high-speed astrograph tailored for astrophotographers seeking rapid, wide-field imaging. Its innovative optical design combines reflective and refractive elements to deliver sharp, bright images swiftly, making it ideal for capturing expansive celestial vistas with ease.
Designed for both novices and seasoned imagers, this telescope's lightweight build and fast optics enable quick setup and efficient data gathering, perfect for those spontaneous astronomy sessions or demanding imaging projects.
Revolutionary Optical Design
At its core lies the Honders Advanced Catadioptric system, blending mirrors and lenses to optimize light transmission and image clarity. This hybrid approach achieves a remarkably fast focal ratio, enhancing brightness and detail across the field.
Ultra-Fast Imaging Speed
Boasting an f/2 focal ratio, the Minigraph captures celestial objects up to five times faster than traditional optics. This efficiency reduces exposure times, allowing you to collect more data in less time without the complexity of autoguiding.
Versatile Rear Focusing
The rear primary mirror focuser enables smooth, precise adjustments and broad camera compatibility. This design simplifies focusing and accommodates a variety of imaging devices, enhancing your setup flexibility.
Optimized for Modern Cameras
With a generous 16mm image circle, this astrograph pairs perfectly with popular sensor sizes, ensuring edge-to-edge sharpness and excellent coverage for contemporary astrophotography equipment.
Compact and Portable
Measuring just over 15 inches long and weighing under 9 pounds, the HAC125DX is easy to transport and mount. Its clamshell rings and dovetail bar make attaching to portable mounts straightforward, supporting your on-the-go astronomy adventures.
Quality Coatings and Construction
Advanced coatings on the mirror and corrector enhance reflectivity and reduce stray light, delivering crisp, high-contrast images. The collimatable primary mirror cell ensures optimal optical alignment for consistent performance.
