This high-performance instrument is perfect for astrophotographers and astronomers seeking to capture the beauty of the night sky with precision and clarity.

    Optical Excellence

    The William Optics Redcat 61 WIFD features a advanced optical design, crafted with the highest quality glass and precision engineering, to provide:

    • Exceptional image sharpness and contrast
    • Reduced chromatic aberration and distortion
    • Increased light transmission for brighter images

    Advanced Focusing System

    The innovative WIFD (William Optics Integrated Focuser Design) enables precise internal sliding of fixed optics, eliminating image shift. The focuser includes a built-in position viewing window for quick verification of the numerical display. Its smooth rack and pinion mechanism allows for extremely fine adjustments, crucial for achieving critical focus. The internal movement of the optical elements is protected from environmental factors, ensuring they remain perfectly aligned. Additionally, the redesigned weight distribution improves balance during imaging sessions.

    Super Smooth Field Rotator

    The William Optics RedCat telescope features an integrated rotator, offering astrophotographers unparalleled control and precision. This rotator allows for effortless 360-degree rotation of the imaging device, enabling perfect framing of celestial objects without disturbing the setup. Its robust construction ensures stability and smooth operation, while the finely graduated scale allows for precise angular adjustments.

    Versatile Mounting Options

    The Redcat 61 WIFD includes a double sided dovetail, compatible with V-Series or Arca-Swiss mounts, providing versatile mounting solutions for various tripods and mounts.

    A convenient handle is installed on top of the telescope to accept accessories, such as the optional uniguide scope or ZWO ASIAIR.

Clouds : ( .......

Its true what they say.... buy a new scope and be assured of cloudy weather for a couple of weeks. As far as quality of build and esthetics it is well put together. Can't wait to load it onto my ZWO AM5N mount (on backorder} and run it through its paces. Anticipating great results.
