The Askar 71F is a compact quadruplet APO refractor engineered for both wide-field astrophotography and visual observing. Featuring a 71mm aperture and 490mm focal length at f/6.9, this flat-field design delivers sharp, pinpoint stars across full-frame sensors without requiring additional flattening optics. Its air-spaced ED glass construction minimizes chromatic aberration, while the lightweight 2.5kg optical tube and dual-speed 2.4" focuser with electronic focuser compatibility make it an excellent choice for portable imaging rigs and versatile observing sessions.
