Vixen 2637 Vixen VMC260L OTA 260MM 10.2 Inch Catadioptrical Cassegrain Reflector Telescope OTA.

The Vixen VMC260LDG Catadioptric GP-Trim telescope is a unique catadioptric telescope that uses a meniscus corrector lens along with two high-precision spherical mirrors to produce a sharp image with no hint of false color. The f/11.6 optical system is suitable for observation of all types of celestial objects and offers excellent performance for both visual planetary eyepiece projection imaging.

The Vixen VMC260LDG Catadioptric GP-Trim telescope, however, is not just another catadioptric telescope. The open tube design of the The Vixen VMC260LDG Catadioptric GP-Trim telescope eliminates the dew problem that is common with conventional Schmidt-Cassegrain systems and the rack and pinion focuser eliminates image-shift common in other catadioptric designs. You can even tweak the collimation on the The Vixen VMC260LDG Catadioptric telescope via pairs of push-pull collimation screws.

This version of the The Vixen VMC260LDG Catadioptric telescope is the GP Trim optical assembly only for those who wish to fit to an existing mount.
