Astro-Physics 2,7" Field Flattener for 130 StarFire EDFGT
The 2.7" Field Flattener can be coupled to a variety of different cameras for truly superb photographs or images with your 130 f/6.3 StarFire GT that has a 2.7" focuser. If you have the 130 f/6.3 StarFire GTX or GT with 3.5" focuser, consider the Astro-Physics 3,5" Prime Focus Field Flattener (#1405351, € 1035,-) .
- The backfocus spacing for these flatteners (as measured from the rear flange) is 3.4" +/- 1/10" (86.4 mm +/- 2.5 mm).
- The bayonet male thread size at the rear is 3.725" x 24. Use the bayonet locking ring to secure your camera into position after you have framed your image. This allows you to rotate the camera to achieve your desired composition.
- Starting in August 2009, all 2.7" field flatteners are now shipped with machined aluminum covers for both sides of the unit. If you already own one of these flatteners and would like a set of covers, you may order them separately. Covers for Astro Physics 2,7" Field Flattener (#1405360, € 88,-) .

Astro-Physics – High-end German Equatorial Mounts
HIGH-QUALITY PROFESSIONAL ASTRONOMICAL MOUNTS Keeping to the same quality standards that have made the fully-apochromatic refractors legendary, Roland Christen's company has been building German Equatorial GoTo mounts for more than three decades. Their proven stability, accuracy and durability is the reward for anyone who can endure the traditionally long delivery times. Two "el Capitan" mounts are working in the Antarctic for several years now, even at temperatures of -75°C. They are perhaps the most spectacular example of the durability of the sturdy Astro-Physics mounts and are representative for many more exemplars that often run for decades at our customers without failures. With a very accurate manufactured worm gear the Astro-Physics mounts are equally well-suited for smooth, effortless tracking of celestial objects as well as for all visual and photographic purposes. Astro-Physics supplies 4 mounts with 30kg to 135kg instrument load. The GTO 1100 and GTO 1600 series are especially remarkable, because they are fully transportable - despite their high instrument load. This is possible because the declination axis can be separated from the rest of the mount. Even the GTO 1600, with 90 kg instrument load, can be transported and set up by one person! The connection of the two...
