Deep Sky Dad WO RedCat 51 EAF Dovetail Kit: Streamlined Focusing for Widefield Astrophotography
Alternative Widefield Imaging Solution: The William Optics RedCat telescope, with its 250mm focal length, serves as a superb alternative for widefield lens shooting.
Time-Saving Autofocusing: The helical focuser can make focusing a lengthy process, especially with narrowband filters. The AF3 autofocuser dovetail kit simplifies this process.
ASIAIR Compatibility: For ASIAIR users, a specialized dovetail kit mounting solution is available for the ZWO EAF autofocuser.
Elevated Design for Convenience: Includes an aluminum extension block to raise the telescope just enough for the EAF motor to fit snugly between the telescope and the dovetail.
Balanced and Compact Setup: Ensures a well-balanced and space-efficient arrangement, allowing easy attachment of additional accessories.
Accessibility for Additional Accessories: The design leaves the telescope ring available for other gear, such as the William Optics guide scope plate included with the SpaceCat.
Dovetail Compatibility: Fully compatible with 110 and 210 dovetails that are standard with cat telescopes, ensuring broad utility and ease of integration.
