Model: Apo 175/1400 CNC-LW II
The 175mm Apo is our largest transportable flagship and of the same stunning quality, opticly and in terms of color correction, as our other longer focus Apo's. It will offer you detail on the planets you may have never seen before. It's an excellent CCD imaging machine as well. The newly designed, lighter CNC tube permits usage of this large Apo on transportable, medium sized mounts. This model is only available for a short time more, then being replaced in 2006 by the new 180mm f/7. The tube rings are flat on both sides and offer five tapped 1/4-20 inch holes perpendicular to the tube line with one centered. The middle two hole's center to center spacing is 60mm (2.362") and outer two hole's spacing is 3.2" (Astro-Physics standard).
