Baader 40mm SkySurfer V Red Dot Finder

This is a large aperture, premium quality, lightweight aluminum red dot finder, with bases to fit almost any telescope.

Supplied with Dew Caps/Lens Shades and captive protective end caps. The Sky Surfer V is constructed mostly of metal. This red dot finder is definitely built to last! The Sky Surfer V is based on a robust model from the military, which is offered in field sports stores at twice the price – but with much poorer performance (from an astronomical point of view!). Baader have "demilitarized“ it and optimized it for astronomy. The main improvements are;

• The typical, red shimmering coating has been replaced by an astronomical coating, allowing even faint stars to be seen.

• All glass surfaces are coated to increase the transmission of light.

• You can attach 40mm long dew caps at both sides to prevent fogging of the glass surfaces.

• The red dot sight can be adjusted to a very low brightness. This way it does not dazzle at night.

• All optical surfaces are made of high quality glass. The red-dot-finder is sealed watertight by O-rings.

• The dust caps can also be used as a Solar FInder (WITH CAUTION - Please read the instructions fully first!)

This is an excellent allround finder that comes highly recommended.

With a useful aperture of 70mm and a focal length of 400mm (F5.7), the Tecnosky Sharp Guide 70 lends itself well to guiding focal lengths up to 1700mm. The 70mm Achromat doublet is fully multi-coated. Thanks to its more conservative focal ratio, chromatic aberration is kept under control. Due to this the scope offers the possibility of also being able to serve as a small travel telescope or spotting scope when used with a suitable diagonal. In addition to the "non-rotating" helical focuser, there is a threaded ring nut near the doublet cell which allows the tub to be extended, thus allowing the use of diagonals, flip-mirrors and other accessories.

Included with the scope are a pair of tube rings and a plate compatible with Skywatcher, Celestron, Orion, GSO etc. On the tube there are also 2 threaded holes which allow you to directly mount a Vixen GP format plate and have a more solid support both as a guide telescope or as a travel telescope.

SPECIFICATIONS:

·        Multicoated 70mm F5.7 Achromat

·        Focal Length: 400 mm

·        1.25" Indexed Helical Focuser with Brass Compression Ring and T2 extension thread.

·        Supplied with tube rings and mounting bar
