The Rowe-Ackermann Schmidt Astrograph (RASA) 6 is a compact powerhouse engineered with ultra-fast f/2.2 optics, delivering exceptional performance for deep-sky astrophotography without sacrificing portability. Its f/2.2 design dramatically shortens exposure times, making it easier to capture crisp, detailed images of faint deep-sky objects without the heavy burden of extended tracking. The wide 3.8° field of view, optimized for sensors up to 22mm diagonal, makes it ideal for framing expansive celestial targets, while Celestron's XLT coatings maximize light transmission for bright, high-contrast images. Weighing just 8.4 pounds and sporting a fast f/2.2 focal ratio, this 6" astrograph is a deep-sky imaging powerhouse designed for on-the-go astrophotographers and backyard imagers alike.
