Takahashi FOA 60Q OTA

Takahashi FOA 60Q OTA

The FOA-60Q is a new compact apochromatic fluorite doublet refractor from Takahashi.  The telescope features a 60 mm aperture and a 530 mm focal length.  It is with extender 1.7xR, which increases the focal length to 901 mm. The spacing of the doublet elements is such that the correction of the spherical aberrations is similar to that found in the much larger TOA series.  This innovative design results in a Strehl ratio in excess of 96% for the base unit and over 99% with the extender.
