What Glasspathcorrector would I require for my Altair Astro 152 v3 achromatic refractor and my skywatcher 127 Mak, would I require a different one for each or would one cover both.

Baader MaxBright® II Sets

The Maxbright^® II Binoviewer is available in differents sets which include further accessories.

Not included are Glasspath Correctors (which version you need depends on your telescope), eyepieces, star diagonal and T-2-adapter. Detailed informatin about the accessories can be found in our Instruction Manual of the Maxbright^® II B inoviewer.

Glasspath Correctors (GC)

A Baader Glasspath Corrector ® (GC) A Baader Glasspath Corrector (GC) fulfills two critical roles. Firstly, it corrects the glass path – that's the amount of glass through which light passes on its way through the prisms and which causes chromatic aberrations (colour errors) with fast telescopes. Secondly, the GC magnifies the focal length and moves the focal point of the main telescope. You will find more information about choosing the right compensator in the Instruction Manual of the Maxbright^® II B inoviewer.

1¼" and 2" Nosepieces

A T-2 nosepiece in 1¼" (31,8mm, # 2458105 ) or 2" (50,8 mm, # 2408150) is used to connect the binoviewer either through the pre-installed T-2 coupling nut or the optional TQC quick changer with a focuser/eyepiece clamp. They can also be used to use a T-2 star diagonal at 1¼" or 2" focusers.

1¼" Star Diagonals

The optical length (that is, the necessary back-focus) must be added to the optical length of the binoviewer.

In our Forum post on the german website www.astronomie.de a question was asked about the difference between the Baader MaxBright® II Binoviewer incl. case (#2456460, € 425,-) and the Mark V Großfeld (Giant)-Binocular (#2456410, € 1275,-) . We have provided a detailed answer to this question, which we do not want to withhold from all other customers who do not have an account in the Astronomie.de forum. Many experiences have been incorporated into the development of the MaxBright® II Binoviewer, so that the differences are surprisingly small. The Mark V Großfeld (Giant) Binocular is produced strictly according to Zeiss specifications by the same suppliers exclusively in Germany who had already supplied Carl Zeiss Jena. For the MaxBright® II, design, development, final assembly and quality control have been and still are carried out in-house. The assemblies and individual parts, however, are put out to tender worldwide and supplied by various suppliers in Europe and the Far East. This is done, among other things, out of self-protection in order not to transfer all knowledge (all design details) to a single supplier. The Mark V offers the last percent more quality, not least due to the larger prisms, which together with the production in Germany pushes up...
