With a fully-rigged telescope weight of just 6.61 lbs., the AM3N mount's 9.04 lb. head carries the imaging train with an ample margin for cameras and accessories without needing a counterweight. The entire system is engineered for portability and rapid setup, delivering full-frame, flat-field images from a platform that can travel to the darkest skies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-bg-light\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-section\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eZWO FF70-APO: A 70mm f\/7 Quadruplet Optical System\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe core of this bundle is the FF70 APO, a 70mm apochromatic refractor with a 490mm focal length. Its f\/7 focal ratio and four-element optical design strike a critical balance between a wide field of view and the light-gathering power needed for deep-sky imaging. This configuration suits framing large targets like the Andromeda Galaxy (M31) or the North American Nebula (NGC 7000) on a full-frame sensor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe quadruplet, air-spaced design incorporates one Extra-Low Dispersion (ED) glass element to minimize chromatic aberration. This ensures that bright stars are rendered as sharp points of light without distracting color fringing, producing images with high contrast and true-to-life color across the entire frame.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-bg-light\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-section\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eNative Flat-Field Design: A 44mm Image Circle with No Flattener Needed\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the FF70 APO's most significant advantages is its self-flattening optical design, which delivers a 44mm corrected image circle without an external field flattener. This eliminates a common source of complexity in astrophotography, as there is no need to calculate and achieve a precise back focus distance for optical correction. The design fully illuminates full-frame sensors (36x24mm) and provides sharp, pinpoint stars from edge to edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstead of a fixed back focus, the system provides a flexible focus range from 32.5mm to 82.5mm from the M48x0.75 thread. This generous range allows you to easily incorporate accessories like filter wheels and off-axis guiders into your imaging train. The included photography extension tube features both M48x0.75 and M54x0.75 threads, plus an integrated 2\" filter thread for convenient filter placement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-bg-light\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-section\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eImaging Mechanics: A 2.4\" R\u0026amp;P Focuser and 6.61 lb Portable Build\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo support a modern imaging train, the FF70 APO is equipped with a rigid 2.4\" rack-and-pinion focuser. A dual-speed 1:10 fine adjustment knob allows for the precise focus control essential for achieving sharp stars. The rear of the focuser incorporates a 360° rotator for exact framing of your target, a crucial feature for composition and creating mosaics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePortability is a defining feature of this telescope. The optical tube alone weighs only 5.51 lbs., and the total weight with its handle, rings, and Vixen dovetail is just 6.61 lbs. Combined with a retracted length of 372.5mm, the FF70 APO is easy to transport and set up, making it well suited to traveling to dark-sky locations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-bg-light\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-section\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eZWO AM3N Mount: 17.64 lb Counterweight-Free Payload from a 9.04 lb Head\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ZWO AM3N mount uses a strain-wave gear system to carry a large payload from a light head. The mount head weighs only 9.04 lbs. yet supports a 17.64 lb. payload without requiring any counterweights. This creates a significant performance margin for the 6.61 lb.

The included ZWO TC40 tripod is constructed from carbon fiber, weighing just 5.07 lbs. while supporting 110.23 lbs.

The FF90 APO offers a larger 90mm aperture, providing greater resolving power and collecting more light for fainter targets. However, this comes at the cost of increased size and weight, requiring a more substantial mount.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe FF70 APO's primary advantage is its extreme portability. At a fully equipped weight of 6.61 lbs., it is significantly lighter than its larger sibling and is well matched to compact harmonic drive mounts like the AM3N.
