The Starfield 8" f/4 Imaging Newtonian is a fast optical tube assembly designed to view and photograph deep-sky objects like galaxies and nebulae. The primary mirror is made of BK7 optical glass known for its thermal stability, with dielectric coating and a protective SiO2 (quartz) layer for durability. The 2" monorail focuser with 10:1 dual-speed control provides lifting power for DSLR or CMOS deep-sky cameras, and includes a low-noise, long-lifetime cooling fan for faster thermal equilibrium. With an APS-C DSLR sensor, this telescope achieves a near 2-degree diagonal field of view, ideal for wide-field imaging of large celestial objects.
