• Consist of 100ml Optical Wonder™ Cleaning Fluid and Cloth
• Works on all sensitive optical surfaces
• Dislodges dirt, aggressive aetherical oils from pollen and fat – dries up completely without leaving any residue or wipemarks
• cleans without scratching: eyepieces, objective lenses – even mirrors (please see separate instruction)

• 40mm optical path length
• Telescope side T-2 internal thread
• Focus side T-2 external thread
• For eyepiece projection with shift/sliding focuser

• Baader Q-Barlow lense 2.25x, 1¼" barrel
• dual factor lens assy (1.3x/ 2.25x)
• Modern High-Transmission Multi-Coating all air-glass surfaces delivers a remarkably brilliant image with extremely low internal reflections
• Extends the possible focal lengths of the Q-Turret eyepiece set

• Special Reducer 2" / 1¼" with 4.5mm optical height only
• Suitable for BDS-NT Diamond Steeltrack
• Includes 2" Filterholder (M48 inner thread)

• Converts a T-2 external thread in a T-2 internal thread
• Effective in combination with T-2 component # 26 as T-2 extension tube with 10mm optical path length
• Knurled circumferentially to protect against seizing
• Works together with T-2 part #35 as detectable rotary device

• US-Norm Allen wrench keySet, precision quality with ball-head
• The complete set includes the following allen wrench keys: 5/16 - 1/4 - 7/32 - 3/16 - 5/32 - 9/64 - 1/8 - 7/64 - 3/32 - 5/64 - 1/16 - 0,05 inch

• Adapter cable from Steeldrive II Controller AUX Port to Cinch for common heat pads with up to 10W.
• It enables the precise temperature control of e.g. dew shield heaters, optical filters and instruments with of +/-0.1 degree accuracy via the AUX input.
• Connected directly to the Steeldrive controller
• The power can either be set in the SteelGo software, or you set a desired temperature for one of the temperature sensors. This prevents undesired heating of the telescope, because you keep the dew cap just above the dew point.

• To connect DSLR camera lenses or DMK video modules

• made of V2A stainless steel
• including V-clamp 70mm diam. to mount onto V-dovetails

• Bottom side featuring various predrilled hole patterns to fit onto DEC-face of most mounts (Takahashi, 10Micron, Astro-Physics, Vixen, Celestron)
• With an integrated 3 "dovetail, suitable for all mounts with 3" (Losmandy)
• 3D-printed ring wrench for Baader clamping knobs #2450071 is recommended

Morpheus 76° eyepiece series technical data

• Full field sharpness: The sharp flat 76° field is unsurpassed by any other modern wide field eyepiece. On-axis sharpness and contrast rivals our best planetary eyepieces, while delivering nearly equivalent performance over the full field.
• Long Eye Relief and optimized for bino-viewing: Morpheus pushes the envelope of comfortable wide field viewing further than ever before, delivering close to 20mm of eye relief
• Low Distortion: The Morpheus optical design delivers exceedingly low distortion (angular magnification distortion)
• Photo-Video Adaption: Like their Hyperion siblings, all Morpheus eyepieces make superb imaging projection optics with the M43 thread
• New Features since January 2018:
  • Metal / Rubber eyecup: The folding rubber eyecup now comes with an integral M43 threaded metal ring (this accounts for the complete line of Morpheus-eyepieces). The threaded attachment enables the eyecup to stay soft and compliant, while keeping the eyecup securely attached to the eyepiece while folding it up or down.
    
  • M43/M43 extension: all Morpheus eyepieces now include the M43 extension #2954250. It is used for optimizing the position of the eyecup in setting the personal viewing position as well as for adapting a camera with M43-thread (eg. Sony / Panasonic). In addition this extension serves also as clamping surface for smartphone holders
    
  • 10-page manual: a manual with many application examples and a list of optional accessories (similar to the Hyperion manual) is included (also under Tab "Downloads")
    
  • Focal-Length Indicator-Clips: these stainless steel clips can be attached e.g. to the eyepiece holster and one or more of the little indicator fingers is bent upward - according to the focal length used. In this way the user experiences a taktile ("braille"-equivalent) sensation, being able to identify each eyepiece without looking and without using a flashlight
    

• Fixed focal length of 5mm, 68° field of view – ease of view even at high magnifications!
• High quality Phantom Group-Coating in Zeiss class for complete freedom from reflections with maximum contrast
• 1¼" and 2" barrels included, thus variable focal lengths
• Includes many threads for camera and accessory adaptation, afocal and classical eyepiece projection is possible

• converts any 2" (SC) female thread into a T-2 (M42 x 0.75) female thread - without extending the optical length
• initially manufactured to adapt our Hyperion Universal Zoom Mark IV onto any photographic T-2 thread (see animation on the right)
• this adapter can also work as an expansion ring to convert a photographic T-thread into a male 2" SC thread
• suitable for adaptation of any accessory with male T-2 connection thread, e.g. our VariLock 20-29mm and VariLock 29-46mm clamps
• Adapter with continuous 2" male and T-2 female thread as well as two face holes (recommended mounting accessory: adjustable pin-type face wrench #2450062)

• Glass fibre cable from BACHES Echelle Spekcrograph to the RCU (Remote Control Unit)
• Length: 15 Meter

• T-2/90° Baader Roof-Prism. Manufactured by Zeiss standard, both sides with T-2 system threads
• This Prism is multicoated and built in a solid metal body. T-2-thread on both sides, therefore extremely short and adaptable on every telescope-system.

• Hyperion SP 54 thread protection ring
• Material: high quality silicone - non-aging, no chemical softeners, non smelling, not getting brittle over time

• 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.

• Standard base viewfinder mounting Pairing MQR III, IV MQR, Witty 1, SkySurfer 5 for mounting on the "second telescope"
• The Baader standard basis is milled from solid (no cheaper casting), adjusts all Tubusradien and can be with two screws in the slots - but also with a single screw in the center - absolutely firmly attach.
• The base plate is milled sinusoidal and forms on each tube radius 130-400 mm diameter two linear runs. This provides maximum stability

• for safe storage and transport of the Mark V Großfeld-Binocular
• to upgrade older models. Since 2014 included in scope of supply of the Mark V Großfeld-Binocular
• Also fits for the Maxbright Binokular
