Optec Inc. NextGEN MAXfield NGM 0.33X Telecompressor Lens - Enhanced Imaging for SCTs

Optimized for Classic SCTs: Specially designed for Meade and Celestron SCTs, effectively reducing the focal ratio to f/3.3 on f/10 systems and f/3.7 on f/11 C-14 systems.
Variable Performance: Results can slightly vary based on the imaging train configuration.
Ideal with Temperature Compensating Focuser: Achieves best results when used with a temperature compensating focuser, ensuring precise focus in varying temperatures.
Second Generation Design: The NGM 0.33X MAXfield telecompressor is well-suited for C-mount cameras, including Mallincam Video CCD cameras.
Advanced Optical Design: Developed using Zemax, optimized for minimal blur across multiple field points and wavelengths (450, 550, 650 nm).
Custom-Made Optical Elements: Lenses made without compromise to radii, using custom tools for precision.
Telescope-Side Compatibility:
- TCF-S focuser.
- Any standard 2-inch focuser or receiver.
Camera-Side Compatibility:
- Requires NextGEN Camera-specific mount.
- Detailed compatibility table available for supported cameras.
Detailed Optical Analysis Available:
- Spot diagram, encircled energy, ray trace, and field curvature diagrams available for in-depth analysis.
Enhanced Astrophotography: Ideal for astrophotographers seeking to reduce focal ratios for faster imaging and wider fields of view.
