Takahashi FOA 60 OTA

Takahashi FOA 60 OTA

The FOA-60 is a new compact apochromatic fluorite doublet refractor from Takahashi.  The telescope features a 60 mm aperture and a 530 mm focal length.  The spacing of the doublet elements is such that the correction of the spherical abberations is similar to that found in the much larger TOA series.  This innovative design results in a Strehl ratio in excess of 96% for the base unit and over 99% with the extender.

  • Compact design for relatively long focal length, making it ideal for transport
  • Outstanding visual and photographic performance, providing a 44 mm diameter image circle for full frame imaging

Note:  FOA-60 Shown.  Mount not included.
