Vixen VMC260L AXD-Vers Telescope Optical Tube Assembly (OTA)
- Cassegrain reflector
- Compatible with Vixen AXD2, AXJ, SXP2 mounts.
Color of the optical tube has been changed from dark green to white.
Vixen's optical tubes has unified into fresh white color.
Vixen's original modified Maksutov Cassegrain.
The VMC features a combination of a miniscus lens unit in front of the secondary mirror and high-precision spherical mirrors that are shaped with extreme accuracy. Spherical aberration and curvature of field are corrected to a high level of optical performance for clear and sharp images. With its 260mm aperture dielectric coated mirror, the VMC260L collects enough light for serious visual and photographic applications and for both planetary and seep sky observing.
