Baader Planetarium

• unique and extremely versatile telecompressor system that delivers the finest wide flat fields your SCT is capable of
• The result is a sharp, wide, flat field, at a fast focal ratio of f/5.9, optical length <50mm
• Please Note: The close coupling required for the telecompressor to reach focus with binoviewers limits it's use to only the Baader/Zeiss and Celestron binoviewers.

• converts any 2" (SC) female thread into a M41.5 x 1 female thread - without extending the optical length
• manufactured to adapt our Hyperion Universal Zoom Mark IV straight onto any spotting scope - such as Bausch & Lomb-, Opticron- and Kowa-Base - equipped with M41.5 male thread (see animation on the right)
• Note: for fitting the optical nose of the Zoom into the receptor at some spotting scopes, the thin dust cover ring needs to be removed - see images
• Adapter with continuous 2" male and M41,5 x 1 female thread as well as two face holes (recommended mounting accessory: Adjustable pin type face wrench ø 2mm (#2450062 , € 17,-) )

• Coma corrector for Newton telescopes, that reduces neither the focal length nor the image field of your telescope
• Large lenses for completely vignetting-free exposures up to f / 3.5. Maximum sharpness over the entire image field
• Phantom Coating™ Group multicoated for maximum transmission and total freedom from reflections
• Next to the photographic only version, there is also a visual version that contains all parts of the base elements as well as additional adapters for visual application:
  • 2458400A: Photographic Version with removable 2" Stoppring, usable either with T-2 (M42x0.75) or M48x0.75 connection
  • 2458403: Visual Version (V-1 Set) contains all parts of the photographic Version MPCC Mark III #2458400A as well as 1¼" to T-2 focusing eyepiece clamp (#2458125) and adjustable VariLock T-2 extension tube 20 – 29 mm (#2956929)

Please note: This set replaces the former set #2458402 for visual and photographic application of the MPCC Mark III. The old set consisted of a multitude of rings – but was not adjustable in optical length such as this V-1 set.

The idea for this new and much more versatile set was born after we received this detailed question regarding eyepiece adaptation on MPCC, where we recommended our VariLock and focusing eyepiece clamp as best accessories.

• Baader levelling flanges are used to adjust the unevenness of the foundation or the concrete pillar as well as other deviations of the substructure from the perfect north-south alignment. They adjust these imperfections as close as possible to the mount, very precisely and steady, without reducing the stability of the pillar
• Suitable as a pillar adapter flange to
• Consisting of two solid Steel, separated by six steel bars
• Top plate precision milled flat and threaded to fit the base plate.

• Metal Magnet Ring for Homing-Sensor of Steeldrive II - fitting for Baader Diamond Steeltrack® focusers
• If you have upgraded your Diamond Steeltrack® e.g. with a 2" Clicklock S58 eyepiece holder (#2956258) or if you use an adapter to a thread (T-2, M48 or M68), the Metal Magnet Ring is an alternative to the simple magnet holder which is included in the scope of delivery of the Steeldrive II (#2957165).
• The Steeldrive II motor unit features a contactless (wearfree) homing sensor (hall-effect sensor). It is activated by a magnet attached to the moving part of the focuser. It enables precise homing and repeatable approach of saved absolute positions as well as reference of the mechanical endstop.
• The Metal Magnet  Ring is attached between the eyepiece clamp and the eyepiece extension. To install the magnet ring, at first you need to remove the 2" eyepiece holder or the thread adapter for e.g. T-2, M48 or M68. It must be installed parallel to the Steeldrive II.
