Key Features:

• High-Quality Triplet APO Refractor: The ASKAR FMA230 features a Triplet air-spaced APO design with two ED glass elements, ensuring exceptional chromatic aberration correction.

• Optimized for Sharp Imaging: Produces flatter images with striking clarity, rigorously tested to meet the high standards of astrophotography and observation.

• Efficient Focusing System: Includes a special rail-mounted autofocuser kit to streamline the often time-consuming focusing process, especially useful with narrowband filters.

• Adapts to Nightly Temperature Changes: Designed to automatically adjust focus in response to temperature fluctuations, maintaining consistent imaging quality throughout the night.

• Balanced Autofocusing Mechanism: The motor, mounted on a specialized trolley and connected to the rails, aligns the autofocuser pulley with the lens focusing ring for a compact and balanced solution.

• ASIAIR Compatibility: Offers a custom mount solution specifically for the ZWO EAF autofocuser, ideal for astrophotographers using the ASIAIR system.

• Simplified Astrophotography Process: Reduces the effort and time needed for accurate focusing, making astrophotography more accessible and enjoyable.

• Robust and Reliable Design: Built for durability and reliability, ensuring long-lasting performance in various astrophotography scenarios.
