The focuser is ideal for Newtonian telescopes and offers maximum stability and precision.
♦ Extension tube adjustment range 24 mm
♦ Hardened stainless steel tread and ball bearings
♦ Extremely robust, even with heavy cameras, without tilt and with precise adjustment
♦ Micro reduction for exact focus
♦ Extremely short - the extension itself is only 40mm
♦ Mounting height for Newtonian telescopes 50mm: this takes into account the overhang of the extension tube and adapter plate
Starlight Instruments Feather Touch FTF2008 Focuser
The Feather Touch focuser has been completely redesigned. All rolling parts and ball bearings are made of hardened stainless steel, which significantly improves smooth operation and increases long-term stability and strength. There are no signs of wear. Especially for CCD and normal astrophotographic use, this focuser is a doddle of the highest quality. It also holds heavy cameras and accessories with optimal stability.
Adapting the FTF2008 to your telescope
Due to its short length, the focuser is mainly used for DIY and to improve Newtonian telescopes. But Schmidt-Cassegrain, Cassegrain, and even refracting telescopes also benefit from the short overall length. Therefore, the FTF2008 is ideal for all telescopes where the extension tube should not protrude too far into the interior of the telescope.
