Vixen R200SS 200 mm F/4 newtonian reflector telescope

The Vixen R200SS newtonian reflector telescope is an high quality reflector with a primary mirror of 200 mm diameter and 800 mm focal length, F/4 focal ratio. The high quality optics and construction from Vixen allows this instruments to be a perfect visual and photographic telescope, perfect for low brightness deep-sky objects such as nebulae, galaxies, open clusters and comets.

The Vixen R200SS newtonian reflector is the reference instruments for astroimaging of the deep-ksy objects with DSLR and CCD cameras up to full-frame format (24x46 mm).

There are a lot of good reasons why you should buy a Vixen R200SS:

• Highest quality optics, superior precision than most of the other competitors;La precisione di lavorazione delle ottiche è superiore a quella di altri newton concorrenti;
• The low focal ratio F/4 allows fast imaging with high signal-to-noise ratio;
• Seconday mirror and low-profile focuser sized for a bigger, unvignetted and illuminated field of view;
• Secondary mirror support with thick spider vanes in order to avoid flexures during long exposures;
• Thank to the use of lighweight material, Vixen was able to make amazingly low-weight yet hogh-quality OTA that even a small mount could carry without problems.

For the best imaging performance, Vixen developed an optional corrector with Wynne optical design able to fully correct largest sensor up to full-frame format (24x46 mm)

The example images show what is the R200SS is capable of: you can see some pictures taken with this instruments and a Canon 350D DSLR with the discontinued V3 Coma Corrector (images courtesy M. Zorzenon).
