# 2456316Z
€ 127.00 Price excl. German VAT tax (19%): € 106.72- Glasspathcorrector Factor 1,7. Focus gain: ca. 35 mm
- Insert diameter: ∅ 38 mm
- Suitable to insert into the Baader MaxBright® II Binoviewer or Mark V Großfeld (Giant)-Binocular (#2456410 , € 1425,-)
- 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 , € 479,-) is the only Baader-Bino where you can choose between Zeiss ring-dovetail and T-2 thread adapter.
