Crayford – Extremely low-profile design for perfect focusing<\/b><\/p>\n

With the Omegon 2 inch Newtonian focuser, you have perfect focusing at your fingertips. The extremely low-profile design eliminates the all-too-common focusing problems.<\/p>\n

Rotate the focus ring and you will immediately notice that the inner focusing tube slides satin-smoothly and has no play. The entire focuser has a very elegant black anodised exterior design. The interior has a mat black coating with machined-in grooves which suppress unwanted reflections.<\/p>\n

Low-profile focuser design<\/strong><\/p>\n

The incredibly low-profile design – a squat 50mm – now allows you to pull any object into focus. And if your eyepiece or camera has to be moved a little further out? No problem – simply pull out the built-in extension tube to the length required.<\/p>\n

Tiger Crayford – The improved Crayford focuser<\/strong><\/p>\n

‘Bearing Type’ is the name of the new, improved, Crayford design. The Crayford focuser design already had the advantage of a backlash-free focusing. The secret of the Omegon focuser is the use of roller ball bearings: 8 large rollers keep the inner tube firmly in position and allow the tube to slide smoothly into the desired position. An additional rack-and-pinion allows the focuser to ‘stay where it’s put’ – the tube does not slip out of position as easily as with traditional Crayford focusers.<\/p>\n

1:11 reduction ratio for sensitive focusing<\/strong><\/p>\n

An additional planetary gear provides 1:11 reduction for the Omegon Bearing Type. Adjustment in the 1\/10 millimetre range is provided, making focusing on astronomical objects particularly straightforward as the optimal focus position can always be easily located.<\/p>\n

High load capacity of up to 8kg<\/strong><\/p>\n

What do SLR cameras, large CCD cameras, Off-Axis guiders and large 2 inch eyepieces have in common? The answer is that they often quite heavy, especially when used in combination. For this reason, the Omegon Crayford focuser has been designed to have a particularly high load bearing capacity can support up to 8kg of accessories.<\/p>\n

So attach all your accessories, whether light or heavy with impunity – you don’t need to don’t worry. You can simply get on with enjoying the night sky.<\/p>\n

Fixing focus position for astrophotography<\/strong><\/p>\n

A lock-screw is provided for locking the focus in place for astro-photography. The focusing mechanism is now locked out, meaning you cannot accidentally change the focusing. And, once again, this focuser has the edge over the traditional Crayford design – the screw only locks the focusing mechanism, NOT the inner tube. The focuser hence remains centred as the inner tube is not put under any pressure.<\/p>\n

Suitable for a wide range of telescopes<\/strong><\/p>\n

The base plate of the focuser does not have a fixed radius fitting. There is a good reason for this, namely that it allows you to attach the focuser to a wider range of Newtonians. It is suitable for telescopes with an aperture of 200mm upwards.<\/p>\n

Tune your telescope, convert it and improve it with the new Tiger Omegon focuser.<\/p>\n
