ASKAR 131F 131MM Large Aperture F7.5 Flat-Field Astronomical Telescope Self-flattened Quadruplet Astrograph

Introduction:
- The 131F is a large-aperture telescope designed for astronomy enthusiasts, featuring a 131mm aperture, 983mm focal length, and a native F7.5 focal ratio.

- It employs a quadruplet optical lens design with three elements in the front and one in the rear, including one piece of ED glass to effectively suppress chromatic aberration.

- The lens tube incorporates an internal baffle to block stray light, further enhancing image quality. The 131F supports full-frame imaging and delivers excellent star performance across the frame.

- Continuing the F series' self-flattening design, users can achieve optimal imaging without purchasing an additional flattener or calculating back focus. Simply connect the imaging accessory, achieve focus, and you're ready to shoot - streamlining the process and lowering the barrier to use.

- The telescope comes standard with a photographic extension tube featuring a built-in 2-inch filter thread and offers M48x0.75 and M54x0.75 adapters for broad compatibility with DSLR cameras and dedicated astronomy cameras, meeting diverse imaging needs.

- Staying true to the brand philosophy, the 131F balances optical performance with user experience. The lens tube is crafted with high-quality CNC machining and painted finish, continuing the F series' iconic blue-and-white color scheme for strong visual identity.

- Whether for deep-sky imaging or visual observation, the 131F is an ideal choice for advancing your astrophotography journey.
