CELESTRON FOCAL REDUCER

The Celestron Reducer/Corrector is a combination focal reducer and field corrector that transforms your Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope into a faster, wider-field instrument without sacrificing image quality. By reducing your telescope's focal length and focal ratio by 37 percent, it delivers wider fields of view for visual observing and cuts astrophotography exposure times by a factor of about three.

Features

• Dual focal ratio capability: turns your SCT into a faster instrument while preserving image quality.
• 37 percent reduction: takes an f/10 system to f/6.3, and an f/11 system to f/7.
• Wider fields of view: ideal for deep-sky observing and astroimaging.
• Faster astrophotography: reduces exposure time by a factor of about 3.
• Four-element multi-coated lens: 41 mm optics in a knurled metal cell for easy threading.
• Broad compatibility: works with Celestron 5", 6", 8", 9.25", 11" and 14" Schmidt-Cassegrain telescopes (not for EdgeHD).

Specifications

• Reduction factor: 0.63x (37 percent reduction)

• Thread/compatibility: Standard 2" SCT rear-cell thread
• Optical design: 4-element multi-coated, 41 mm lens
• Working distance: 105 mm (camera side)
• Compatible telescopes: Celestron 5", 6", 8", 9.25", 11", 14" SCT (not EdgeHD)
