Vixen SD115S Refractor Telescope

A new apochromatic refractor with high-performance Super ED glass (=SD). The FPL53 glass reproduces an extremely clear and sharp image by eliminating residual chromatic aberration. Another advantage of these SD refractors is the short length and lightweight design.

The SD glass is designed to focus all beams of violet, red, blue, yellow and green light exactly onto the same level. The special lens material reduces chromatic aberration across all colors. Together with the new optional SD Reducer HD Kit or SD Flattener HD, these refractors provide illumination with a 44 mm image circle for full-frame SLR cameras.

The ED81SII, ED103S and ED115S refractors were originally designed for visual observers or photographers with an APS-C camera. However, the new SD series features new inner panels which are optimized for full-frame cameras. The large focuser allows you to attach heavy cameras without the telescope tilting. The telescope also comes with a folding mirror for making observations in unfavorable conditions, as well as a T2 thread for connecting a DSLR camera.

1. 115mm aperture refractor telescope: The Vixen SD115S Refractor Telescope has a 115mm aperture, which allows for the collection of a moderate amount of light, resulting in bright and clear images of celestial and terrestrial objects.

2. Fast f/7.7 focal ratio: The fast f/7.7 focal ratio of the Vixen SD115S Refractor Telescope means that the telescope is able to gather light quickly, making it well-suited for observing faint objects in the night sky.

3. Dual-speed focuser: The telescope includes a dual-speed focuser, which allows for fine-tuning the focus and provides better control during observations.

4. Vixen-style dovetail plate: The telescope features a Vixen-style dovetail plate, which allows for easy attachment to a mount. This provides a stable platform for observing and tracking celestial objects as they move across the sky.

5. Lightweight and portable design: The telescope has a lightweight and portable design, making it easy to carry and set up in the field. This makes it ideal for amateur astronomers and sky watchers who want to take their telescope to different observing locations.

6. Ideal for both terrestrial and celestial observations: The Vixen SD115S Refractor Telescope is ideal for both terrestrial and celestial observations, making it a versatile instrument for exploring the night sky and observing landscapes, wildlife, and other subjects on the ground.

7. Easy to use and set up: The telescope is designed to be easy to use and set up, making it an ideal instrument for amateur astronomers and sky watchers.

8. High-quality optics: The telescope features high-quality optics, which provide clear and detailed images of celestial and terrestrial objects.

9. Versatile observing capabilities: The telescope has versatile observing capabilities and can be used to observe a wide range of celestial and terrestrial objects, from the Moon and planets to landscapes, wildlife, and other subjects on the ground.
