Baader Planetarium

• suitable for Zeiss 1b mount
• suitable for the Baader T-Pod Aluminium Tripod 75–110cm and 95–130cm and Baader Hardwood Tripod
• Attention: for Adaptation on Baader Short-Pillar III the Universal Flange-Basis (#2451155) is needed

• Baader Polarizing Filter - Ideal filter for solar and lunar observations and contrast enhancement in planetary observations.
• Fits 1¼ or 2" eyepieces/threads and is screwed before the eyepiece
• Adjustable brightness when used with a Baader Hershel Wedge
• Important Note: Polarizer will need additional filtering (eg Herschel Prism or AstroSolar Safety Film) before the eyepiece of the telescope for solar observations.

• The RCC I (Rowe Coma Corrector) is a Coma Corrector from Dave Rowe with Triplet Lense design for f/4 Newtons
• The RCC works from f/3.5 to f/6 - it is perfect on f/4
• Coma Corrector with backfocus 91,5mm
• reproduction scale is 1:1 - in contrast to many other coma correctors, the RCC is no Barlow lens which rely on a magnification to make the larger back-focus to the sensor possible
• The RCC is the only coma corrector which gives you enough back-focus for filter wheels or other accessories without changing the focal ratio

• Bayonet adapter to fit suitable 1¼" astro-eyepieces onto all Carl Zeiss Diascope Fluorit spotting scopes
• includes Allen Wrench key and two O-rings to adjust stiffness when switching eyepieces

• Leveling counterweight for Baader Leveling counterweightshafts
• For axis diameter 16mm

• 2.5kg own weight

• Consists of 3 parts: #26/#34/#35
• Converts a T-2 external thread in a T-2 internal thread, and a T-2 internal thread in a T-2 external thread
• With T-2 counter ring - a digital camera can be locked in any rotational position. Acts as a normal T-2 extension ring with 12mm (or 10mm) length
• Together with the rings (T-2 component # 25A - 15mm) / # 25B - 40mm) / # 25C - 7.5mm) can be almost) realized (any required length accurately and torsion.

• Baader RS-232 cable for NexStar - made in Germany
• Connects the RJ 11 port of your hand control to the RS 232 port of your PC.
• Necessary to upgrade the Flash EProm Hand Controller and to control the telescope e.g. over NexRemote.
• If your PC / laptop no RS 232 interface, you also require the USB - RS 232 converter cable

• 2 " retrofit kit for Hyperion ClickStop zoom eyepiece, consisting of the adapter ring M45 / 2" inside, as well as our 2 " barrel.
• 1¼" Hyperion Clickstop-Zoom-Eyepiece can be upgraded into a 2"

• A Solar Shade made from Aluminium to clamp between any 2" connection
• Drilling for 2", (ø 50,8 mm)
• Use as shade (glare protection) for visual observation / imaging through eyepiece or camera
• Used to shade the eyepiece or camera viewing opening from direct solar radiation during photographic- or visual solar observation in the H-alpha region with narrowband filters from SolarSpectrum

• Glasspathcorrector Factor 2,6. Optical path length: -120 mm
• Insert diameter: ∅ 38 mm
• Suitable to insert into the Baader MaxBright (Classic and MaxBright^® II) or {{block type="core/template" template="wordpress/product/shortcode-global.phtml" shortcode="[product sku=\"2456410\"]"}}
• A Baader Glaspathcorrector is not a Barlow lens! The reason for this name (in Germany the name Glaswegkorrektor^® is a protected trademark by Baader Planetarium) is only secondly the displacement of the focal point
• A Glaspathcorrector is primarily intended to correct the prismatic color fringing that occurs on Refractors due to the high amount of glasses used in binocular prisms
• Please note: The Baader MaxBright^® II Binoviewer with case (#2456460, € 425,-) is the only Baader-Bino where you can choose between Zeiss ring-dovetail and T-2 thread adapter.

• Temperature sensor to compensate the drift automatically, if there are large temperature differences
• Flat design, ideal to be attached to the optical tube
• Temperature sensor with phone connector and 1m cable, also supports control of dew-shield-heating
• Can be used with the Steeldrive II Motor Unit or Steeldrive II Controller

• BDS-Adapter with T-2 outer thread to connect T-2 parts
• is mounted instead of the standard clamp with the S58 dovetail ring
• suitable for all Baader Diamond Steeltrack® (BDS) focusers

• DT Adapter III, M68a / SP54a extension adapter M68
• Digital T Adapter System III of M68_a on SP54_a Shortest adaptation for Telecentric system or the fluoride Flatfield Converter (FFC).
• This adapter fits to the M68 (Zeiss) ring system - see at FFC (fluorite Barlow) -. Eg to a DSLR camera using the digital T-rings to mount the FFC as short as possible.

• Connection ring M54/M53 for Kowa TSN 770/880 Spotting Scopes
• enables connection of the Baader Hyperion Universal Zoom Mark IV to KOWA Spotting Scopes with M54 male thread
• Spotting-Scope-sided with M54 female thread
• Eyepiece-sided with M53 female thread

• BACHES C11/C14 Adapter
• Allows connection of BACHES to a Celestron C11/C14 Telescope

• Adapter with M43 x 0,75 male thread to T-2 (M42 x 0,75) male thread, e.g. for Takahashi instruments
• This connection ring allows to connect e.g. a binoviewer or a ClickLock^® eyepiece directly at the focuser with M43 x 0,75 female thread (e.g. Takahashi)
• Our M43x0.75 / T-2 (TAK)-Adapter includes a M34 inner thread to mount our T-2 Glasspath-Correctors to use with Binoviewers
• Optical path length only 0.8 mm
• To use T-2 parts on a M43i x1 female thread (meaning a M43 female thread with 1mm pitch per turn), we recommend our {{block type="core/template" template="wordpress/product/shortcode-global.phtml" shortcode="[product sku=\"1508037\"]"}}

• 3 mm glass thickness
• non-ageing sealed coating edges

• High precision focusing motor for very heavy loads (up to 8 kg), with temperature compensation
• Timing belt eliminates backlash, fits onto all Baader Steeltrack^® focusers (classic and Diamond), can be adapted to other focusers like the FeatherTouch by Starlight Instruments. Adapters for other focusers than the Steeltrack^® (classic and Diamond) are not included.
• Contactless Homing Sensor for precise homing and repeatable approach of saved absolute positions as well as reference of the mechanical endstop – perfect for remote observatories
• incl. intuitive hand control with back-illuminated keys to quickly change between normal speed, jogging mode and single step mode
• 12 V / 1A PWM power output: e. g. for a dew shield heater. A dew shield heater can be connected with an optional adapter cable (sold seperately). The temperature can be controlled precisely via the temperature sensor(s) attached to the Steeldrive
• Remote-focusing is possible with a PC with USB-port
• incl. powerful SteelGo-software (as download)
• Made in Germany: The housing is made in our house from CNC-milled aluminium. The electronic boards are also made by a German manufacturer according to our design

We will also offer the controller with further application possibilities as well as the focusing motor separately. For the motor we will produce adapter sets for eyepiece slides of various other manufacturers. More information will be available soon.
