More information

  • The compact and lightweight Askar 52mm F4 Guide Scope combines a robust design with advanced optical features, including a doublet objective lens and precise X&Y-axis adjustments, ensuring unmatched accuracy and stability in celestial tracking and visual observation.

    Disclaimer

    Designed for autoguiding purposes. Requires a compatible guide camera and software for operation. Check compatibility with your existing equipment.

    • Aperture & Focal Length: With a 52mm aperture and 208mm focal length, this scope provides significantly enhanced light gathering capabilities. Its aperture area is 164% larger than that of the 32mm F4 guide scope, which dramatically increases the amount of light intake, boosting the limiting magnitude to 10.4.
    • Weight & Portability: Weighing only 631g, it offers an ideal balance of stability and portability, making it easy to mount and adjust.
    • Focusing Mechanism: Equipped with a Helical focusing design, this scope allows for smooth, manual adjustments directly on the focuser, complemented by an M3 locking screw hole for additional convenience and precision.
    • Versatility in Use: It comes with a 1.25” adapter and an M42 threaded adapter, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of imaging trains. The standard Vixen-style base, coupled with a 1/4" threaded hole and an M4 threaded hole, facilitates easy attachment and versatility.
    • Design & Aesthetics: The guide scope is available in two sleek finishes—classic black and modern silver. Both options feature a high-quality, uniform coating that not only enhances durability but also adds a sophisticated touch to your astrophotography gear.
