Explore Scientific ED102-FCD100 Series Air-Spaced Triplet Refractor Telescope - FCD100-10207-02

The Explore Scientific ED102-FCD100 Classic White is an apochromatic refractor telescope built for astrophotographers and visual astronomers who want a grab-and-go instrument for both deep-sky and planetary targets. Its air-spaced triplet design uses genuine HOYA FCD100 extra-low dispersion glass, similar in performance to Ohara's FPL-53, and it's compact enough to double as a guide scope mounted alongside a larger telescope.

• Genuine HOYA FCD100 ED Glass: An air-spaced triplet design that virtually eliminates chromatic aberration.
• EMD Enhanced Multi-Layer Coatings: Applied to all optical surfaces for brilliant, high-contrast images.
• 2.5" Hexagonal Focuser: Rigid enough to support up to 10 lbs of imaging gear.
• 714mm Focal Length at f/7: Includes an integrated dew shield and two focuser extension tubes.
• Integrated Vixen-Style Dovetail: With the Explore Scientific 2N1 Hybrid Finder Scope Base pre-installed.
• 12 lb Weight: Compact enough to mount on a larger telescope for separate guiding duties (case and finder scope not included).
• Transferable Extended Warranty: One-year limited warranty extends to a lifetime warranty when registered within 60 days.
