The Celestron 80ED features FPL-53 extra low dispersion "ED" glass that provides excellent color correction and razor sharp images and virtually eliminates chromatic aberration during planetary and lunar viewing. With a focal length of 600 mm (f/7.5) the 80ED refractor is well suited for wide field astrophotography as well as nature photography. The 80ED comes complete with a 2" rack and pinion focuser and has a bracket that can adapt to a photo tripod or attach to a Celestron equatorial mount (mount NOT included). Also included is a 25 mm 1.25" eyepiece providing a 24x wide-field view, an erect image diagonal and a 6x30 finderscope.
