Focal Reducers for Refractor Telescopes
The Starfield 0.8x Reducer doubles as a field flattener. The unique optical accessory is a must for anyone that is imaging with a DSLR or dedicated astronomy camera. What makes this reducer different over all the others? The M42 connection is removable and can be replaced with an optional M48 threaded adapter for Full Frame camera's.
Providing pin point stars across the field of view, the Starfield 0.8x reducer/flattener decrease the focal length of your imaging refractor. Designed to be used with a refractor, f/5.5 and longer, with a 2" focuser, and requires 55mm of back focus. Perfect for any DSLR imager. No additional extension rings are required. With 38mm's of clear aperture the chance of vignetting is removed, and is well suited for APS-C sized and smaller sensors. A 42mm clear aperture when the optional 48mm T-Ring adapter is used. Your imaging sessions will benefit with shorter exposure times and a larger field of view. A standard T-Ring is required. Canon T-Rings should be 11mm, and Nikon 8.5mm.
Multi-coated optics housed in a high polish, and hard anodize finished aluminum body to help reduce weight. This all metal constructed accessory will look like jewelry for your telescope.
Includes standard M42 T thread for camera connection, and 48mm filter thread to add your favorite light pollution filter.
Starfield 0.8x Reducer and Flattener
0.6x Reducer and Flattener
The Starfield 0.6x Reducer doubles as a field flattener. The unique optical accessory is a must for anyone that is imaging with a DSLR or dedicated astronomy camera.
Providing pin point stars across the field of view, the Starfield 0.6x reducer/flattener decrease the focal length of your imaging refractor. Designed to be used with a refractor, f/6 and longer, with a 2" focuser, and requires 55mm of back focus. Perfect for any DSLR imager. No additional extension rings are required. The 42mm clear aperture remove the chance of vignetting and is well suited for APS-C and smaller sensors. Your imaging sessions will benefit with shorter exposure times and a larger field of view. A standard 10mm T-Ring is required.
Multi-coated optics housed in a high polish, and hard anodize finished aluminum body to help reduce weight. This all metal constructed accessory will look like jewelry for your telescope. Includes 48mm filter thread to add your favorite light pollution filter.
Starfield 0.6x Reducer and Flattener
Adjustable Reducers
The Adjustable Reducer
The Starfield 0.8x adjustable reducer and flattener makes finding the correct back focus easy! Fighting with adapters ands spacers is a thing of the past!
Achieving 55mm of back focus is simple, and if more adjustment is needed for fine tuning all that is needed is a small twist. If using accessories such as filter wheels and rotators you can not still get the required back focus. Just add up the thickness of all the accessories, plus the distance to your sensor and subtract from distance on the table below and then set the reducer to the number that is calculated. Illumination and correction up to 42 mm sensor diameter - can be used up to full frame size
The reducer attaches directly Starfield telescope focuser by removing the 2" adapter. Using a 1.5mm Allen key, loosen off the three screws a half turn and then unscrew the lock.
Thread the reducer onto the focuser.
This Reducer can also be used for other Telescopes lager than 102mm
