Astromania 1.25" Astrophotography Flip Mirror - The flip Mirror for Precise Focusing

Product Information

At Rother Valley Optics, one thing we pride ourselves on is customer service and quality of our equipment. When we test your telescope, we will ensure that it is of the highest quality otherwise, we will reject the scope under our strict quality control and test another model for your peace of mind. One of the main values to look at when testing a refractor is the Strehl ratio. The higher this number, the higher quality lens you have. At Rother Valley Optics, we will guarantee the highest possible Strehl ratio for your telescope. We will aim to provide 0.95 Strehl or higher on Takahashi, RVO Horizon, William Optics and many more! Generally, the higher the Strehl ratio, the lower the Astigmatism and Coma meaning a better image quality from your instrument. If more reduction is required a longer C-mount nosepiece or an added spacer can be used between the Scopestuff 1.25 reducer and the camera. Reduction factor can also be increased by moving the camera+nosepiece assembly further out of the ep holder (inceasing the spacing between the first and the second reducer). https://www.baader-planetarium.com/en/accessories/adapters-imaging-accessories/m48-adapter-system/2%22a--m48i-zero-length-reducing-piece-(no-optical-height).html Mirrorless cameras, as the name suggests, do without a mirror and therefore have a shorter flange focal distance. The Panasonic G70 from our example has (without T-ring) a flange focal distance of 19.25mm. The

filters are screwed on the 2" nosepiece of the flip mirror ahead of the focal reducer. 1.25" filters go on the telescop-side threads of the Scopestuff 1.25" second focal reducer. Did you ever think that a webcam can also be used as an online mirror? Anyway, I’m ready to bet that it’s a lot easier than you thought! Just imagine that this webcam mirror allows you to see and admire yourself as a real mirror, except it works online and displays the “reflection” on your device screen. Still in doubt about its usefulness? If so, please take into account that this feature may be very useful for you in several scenarios, such as: Once the Zygo test report has been completed, the optical alignment is thoroughly tested and tuned to ensure they are spot on before they leave us.I took the glass (four lenses plus spacers) out of a Meade 6.3 reducer/corrector and put it into a 2"cell that has 2" filter thread (M48) on the outside. This way the focal reducer fits inside of the 2" nosepiece of the flip mirror body. This arrangement helps to keep the total length of the assembly at a minimum. angeht. Hier hatte ich anfänglich zu vorsichtig die beiden Madenschrauben, die den Guiderport am Flippmirror arretieren, festgeschraubt. Nach kurzer Zeit bemerkte ich ein Verkippen der Guidingkamera bzw. des ganzen Off Axis Guiders. Hier darf man ruhig die beiden Schrauben sehr straff anziehen. Sonst wird der Guider nicht fest genug sitzen! Hier wäre m. E. eine Gewindelösung der Schnittstelle angebrachter. In the second picture we have a Micro Four Thirds camera, which is connected via the Baader T-Ring Micro Four Thirds (m4/3) to T-2 + 19mm expansion (#2408330 , € 31,-) Can you please help me figure out what part or parts I will need to make it work? Do you have a thread adapter to make this work and if you do can you please provide me with the Baader part number/s? to set the eyepiece permanently to the same focus position as the camera. Or you can extend the overall length a bit more with the T-2 Fine-Adjustment ring 1mm (gold) - Aluminium - in the picture the golden 1mm ring was used, other lengths are also available.

This two stage reducer is capable of speeding up my f/10 C11 to about f/3. For this additional spacers are needed. When used with a Meade natively f/6.3 OTA, then I keep the reduction factor of the assembly at a minimum to get and overall f/3. If I wanted to, I could go down to around f/2.5 without noticeable deterioration of the image on the small 1/3" or 1/2" sensors. Telescope auxillary instruments cover a wide range of interests, from a sole eyepiece, via camera use, to high end spectroscopy. Unfortunately every telescope just features one exit port. This causes relentless manual exchange of parts in the dark, causing huge time loss, wear on the parts - and "nerves". And whenever you start controlling your telescope remotely - the single port becomes a painful reality. https://www.baader-planetarium.com/en/accessories/adapters-imaging-accessories/2-inch-sc-thread/baader-expansion-ring-2%22at-2i-with-1mm-optical-path-length-(t-2-part-28).html Yes, you can, providing you find a readily visible object first, aim at it and make sure your EP is parfocal with the camera's sensor. It may require 1- moving the EP in or out of its tube, 2-adding or removing the extension tube(s) to the camera port before mounting the camera to the flip mirror, or 3-choosing a different EP. Do a test shot with any of these to determine the EP and camera are parfocal, unless your larger monitor is clear enough to confirm focus. Then you can find that dim object.

How to Flip a Video?

It’s the center of the three hex bolts on the base with the larger head and recessed into the base. The other end of this bolt protrudes into the case and the mirror rests on it in the down position – thus by adjusting this bolt you can easily adjust the up/down alignment of the camera and eyepiece. Cannot stream video. The cause may be a defective camera or that it is currently being used by another application. https://www.baader-planetarium.com/en/accessories/adapters-imaging-accessories/extensions-/-focusing-adapters.html?filter_threads_eyepiecesided=2120

Quantum mechanics is a fundamental theory in physics that describes the behavior of nature at the scale of atoms and subatomic particles.[2]: 1.1 It is the foundation of all quantum physics including quantum chemistry, quantum field theory, quantum technology, and quantum information science. For the adaptation to the telescope, you can use Baader SC / HD Ultra Short T-Adaptor, 9mm optical length # 2958500B, yes. The field stop of the eyepiece and the camera sensor should each be in the same distance from the Flip Mirror. In summary, while my flip mirror focal reducer works well with SCT's, I wouldn't recommend to cannibalize a nice refractor to work with it. A lot needed to be cut from the tube and the resulting optics would probably have lots of aberrations. I'm sorry for repeating so much but I just want to make sure there are no misunderstandings so I'm not buying any unnecessary parts.

The dimensions of the mirror are such that 36x24mm is reflected. That's quit small to cover the inner 38mm of the 42mm tube system. Am Anfang (aus der Ferne) machte ich mir Gedanken über die Orthogonalität des Klappspiegels, dessen Fassung, Drehlagerung und vorallem über die Verwindungssteifheit des gesamten Gehäuses. Denn daran sollten eine SBIG STF-8300M, eine kleine Guidingcam Alccd-QHY 5III 174 und ein Okular platz finden. Ein beachtliches Gewicht für so einen kleinen "Würfel". Meine Bedenken haben sich nach einigen Nächten praktischen Einsatzes in Luft aufgelöst. Bis auf eine kleine Sache, was die Adaption des Off Axis Guider für Baader FlipMirror II (BFM-OAG) optional Reducing piece S52 / M48 # 2958552 (zero length) (for a wider clear aperture; not necessary, if you use T-2 on the telescope side) The FlipMirror II Star Diagonal allows a variety of permanent adaptations to your telescope 1 .Use the rotary knob 2to switch between the rear port 3and the top port 4;you can use an optional toothed belt to operate it with a motor (not included). An autoguider or a calibration lamp can be connected to the bottom port 5.
