Telescope Reducer / Flattener
This 0.5x focal reducer increases the area imaged by your StarShoot camera by a factor of 4. The reducer threads into the nosepiece of either StarShoot camera to effectively reduce the focal length of the telescope by half. The larger imaging area allows capture of larger starfields and deep-sky objects that may not fit entirely in your telescope's normal field of view.
Baader Planetarium Reducer 2"/1.25" includes T-2 thread, permits you convert your 2" focuser for use with 1¼” eyepieces and accessories.
Optec (CCD Photographic Accessories) WideField-FLI 0.5X Telecompressor Lens.
Special WideField f/5 telecompressor designed to fit directly into the FLI camera faceplate using a 2" 24tpi thread.
Threaded on to the telescope’s rear cell in front of the #62 T-Adapter or Off-Axis Guider, and the camera body, the f/6.3 Focal Reducer reduces the main telescope’s focal ratio by a factor of 0.63 (e.g. from f/10 to f/6.3), thereby reducing photographic exposure times by about 50%.
Astro-Physics CCD Telecompressor for SBIG CCD Cameras (.67).
Clear aperture is 1.75". Compression ratio is 0.67x with SBIG ST7/8/10 + Color Filter Wheel installed, 0.75x without the Color Filter Wheel. Suitable for telescopes with focal lengths of f7 to f18 including Maksutov-Cassegrains, Schmidt-Cassegrains, Ritchey-Cretiens, and refractors.
Series 4000 f/3.3 CCD Focal Reducer
It's the easy way to get better images from your Orion 80mm ED Apo Refractor telescope. The new Reducer-Flattener reduces the effective focal length to create shorter exposure times that result in better, brighter images. This is a 'must-have' accessory for quality astrophotography with Orion's ED80. Great for daytime terrestrial photography also!
If you're an astrophotographer seeking even better performance from your Orion 100mm ED Refractor Telescope, our 0.85x Reducer-Corrector is for you. Designed specifically for use with this telescope and a DSLR camera, it reduces the scope's effective focal length to produce a faster system, which allows shorter exposure times. It also provides excellent field correction (flattening), yielding sharp stars out to the edge of a camera chip as large as 36mm x 24mm.
The 0.85x Reducer-Corrector for Orion 120mm ED refractors reduces the effective focal length, producing a wider field and brighter images, and allowing shorter exposure times for astrophotography. It also provides excellent field correction (flattening), yielding sharp stars out to the edge of a camera chip as large as 36mm x 24mm.
NEW Reducer/Field Flattener V. III, especially recommended for users of our Megrez 80, 90 and 110.
Optic NextGEN MAXfield 0.33X Telecompressor Lens.
DX 0.85X Focal Reducer for Digital Imagers
Reducer for FC-60 f/8.3 to f/5.8 (old style)
For photographic use.
0.8X Reducer/Flattener for Pronto, TV-76 and TV-85 refractors.
The Optec NGW (Next Generation WideField) telecompressor increases the effective speed of the Meade and Celestron Schmidt-Cassegrain telescopes from f/10 to f/5. This 1/2 times reduction in focal length allows for 4 times greater field area and 1/4 reduction in exposure time for extended surface objects such as bright nebulae.
Reducer for CN-212 F/12 TO F/9.9.
For photographic use.
0.8x reducer for NP and NPis series telescopes. For up to 43mm diagonal formats, it's constructed to fit both 2" focuser NP scopes (RAD-1074 required) and the threaded NPis accessories on the input end. Requires CWT-1070, STL-1071 or TRG-1072 to connect to camera.
0.8x reducer / flattener for TV-102 telescopes. For up to 43mm diagonal formats, it's constructed to fit both the standard 2" focuser of the TV-102 and the threaded TV-102iis accessories on the input end. Requires CWT-1070, STL-1071 or TRG-1072 to connect to camera.
The newly designed 0.85X reducer has been specifically designed for optimal coverage of digital sensors as large as a 35mm film frame and is compatible with Borg 76/77, 100/101, and 125mm refractors as well as third-party scopes.
Reducer for MT-200
For photographic use.
