Condition

This is a used Stellarvue SV70T apo triplet in excellent condition. The optics are clean and everything is well-cared for, though there are some scratches in the dovetail and riser blocks as shown in the photos. This scope includes the Stellarvue SFFR-70APO 0.8x focal reducer/field flattener which is in great optical condition but also shows some scratches on the outer body. It also comes with a bahtinov mask, the original Stellarvue mounting rings, and the original Stellarvue soft-sided carrying case. 

 

Description

The Stellarvue 70mm APO refractor is a triplet design with apochromatic lenses. With a focal length of 420mm and a focal ratio of f/6, a perfect balance of speed and image quality is acheived.  Every Stellarvue 70mm apochromatic refractor uses Ohara FPL-53 glass and is hand assembled and thoroughly inspected in the US.  


Thanks to the extreme accuracy in each Stellarvue refractor's construction and the superior quality of the glass used for each lens, light focuses in high precision.  Additional high broadband coatings on each optical surface further enhances the natural high contrast and brilliance produced by a Stellarvue APO refractor.  99% of the visual spectrum is transmitted to your eye or camera.  A completely flat black tube interior with baffling further enhances the apparent contrast.  The combination of a small focal ratio and high strehl optics create a beautiful wide field of view for imaging with incredible performance for visual observing. 

Heavy duty dual tube rings are included.  Machined from aluminum for a lighter weight and stronger long term performance, each ring is hinged for easy removal of the optical tube.  Additional 1/4-20" holes are included to attach a variety of accessories and dovetails.    A thickly padded airline ready case is also included to provide a safe place for your Stellarvue telescope to be stored and transported.  Room is left for additional accessories like a diagonal, eyepieces and a flattener.  


The Stellarvue 2.5" rack and pinion focuser offers dual speed (11:1) control and smooth operation.  With a generous 2.875" of focus travel, the Stellarvue focuser makes a perfect focuser for both imaging and observing.  An internal break system was included to allow for load adjustments, to prevent slippage and to offer additional safety when coupled with heavy imaging system.   A retractible dew shield is also included which serves as a simple but handy way to reduce dew at night and as a lens shade during the day.
