If you are looking for an apochromatic (APO) triplet refractor that is professional-grade, portable, extremely lightweight and also durable, then the Explore Scientific Carbon Fiber ED127 Triplet APO is definitely worth considering. This 127mm APO refractor uses EMD-coated optics and includes a heavy-duty, 2-speed focuser, a 99% dielectric coated 2” diagonal (with a 1.25” adapter), and two focal extenders.

With the Explore Scientific ED 127mm F/7 APO, be sure to take advantage of high-quality optics and aperture for your astro imaging, (we do recommend using a field flattener!). This bird is also incredible for good old-fashioned astronomical and terrestrial observations.

Why Buy The Explore Scientific ED 127mm APO Triplet Refractor?

• Carbon Fiber OTA - Not only does this carbon fiber scope offer a significant reduction in weight from its aluminum twin counterpart, it is also resistant to expanding and shrinking (affecting the optics' focus) due to temperature fluctuations.
• Virtually No Chromatic Aberration - This APO Triplet Refractor scope is great for both observing and astro imaging (especially with wide-field framing). You’ll really notice the omitted chromatic aberration with lunar and planetary visuals. Note: If you are starting to get serious with astrophotography, we recommend getting a field flattener to reduce unwanted curvature in your shots.
• Heavy-Duty Starlight Focuser - The included, 3" Starlight Focuser is strong and reliable. It is dual speed, 360-degree rotatable (to help frame your shot), and includes graduation marks (helpful if you are needing to return to the same focus). Note: You’ll notice that a lot of the weight of the scope will actually is come from the back, especially with a 2” eyepiece or a DSLR attached!
• Optics Are ED (Extra-Low Dispersion) and EMD Coated - This scope yields crystal-clear results with it's Hoya FCD1 ED optics. Glass like this is particularly advantageous with lunar and planetary imaging.
• Zero-Hassle Camera Attachments - Attaching your imaging equipment and accessories is a breeze, no matter the size or weight. Easily place a modified DSLR or a smaller CCD astro-imaging camera on the back.
