The Apertura 75Q 0.75x Reducer - Upgrade Your Apertura 75Q Experience!

The team at Apertura continues to deliver high quality products designed to elevate your astrophotography, and have crafted this 0.75x reducer for your 75Q refractor! The lower focal ratio broadens your field of view, giving you increased imaging opportunities. Not only this, but by also lowering the focal ratio, the resulting images will have a higher signal to noise ratio and possess greater detail!

This 0.75x reducer takes the native focal ratio of f/5.4 and focal length of 405mm down to an incredibly fast f/4 and 303.7 mm focal length. Specs like these are hard to come by, turning this quintuplet into one the fastest and highest performing refractors on the market today. In comparison to the William Optics RedCat 61 with a similar focal length of 300mm, the Apertura 75Q paired with this 0.75x reducer offers 1.5x more light gathering power! Constructed with high quality glass, this reducer provides stunning colors, and is well corrected across the frame. This means you can enjoy sharp stars from corner to corner with APS-C sized sensors, as seen within this image of the North America Nebula. Installation is quick and simple on the 75Q refractor, includes M48 threads on the camera side, and features the industry standard 55 mm of backfocus.

Taking Your Refractor Experience to New Heights

Improving upon the already outstanding optics of the Apertura 75Q, the addition of this 0.75x reducer turns this quintuplet refractor into a telescope of unrivaled quality! The 75 mm in aperture, 303 mm focal length, f/4 focal ratio, and five internal lens elements is unheard of at this amazing price point, making for a high performance refractor perfect for any astrophotographer. Capture large regions of the sky within a single exposure, and produce stunning images brimming with clarity. Thanks to the ingenuity from the team at Apertura, quality has never been more accessible.


The Perfect Companion for Your Apertura 75Q

This Apertura 0.75x reducer turns your 75Q Refractor into a light gathering powerhouse with incredible specifications. Also, installation is effortless, and comes backed by the Apertura Absolute Warranty. Read more about this must have optical accessory below!

Easy Installation
Installing this 0.75x reducer on your Apertura 75Q is quick and simple. First, remove all adapters from the focuser just behind the telescope’s camera rotator. Next, remove the dust cover from the focal reducer. Third, thread the reducer into the focuser. Finally, attach your imaging equipment to the reducer, keeping in mind the camera side of the reducer features M48 sized threads.

Add Your 2" Filters with Ease!
Equipped with 2” filter threads, adding a filter to your imaging train is a walk in the park! This 0.75x reducer accepts 2” filters for a wide variety of imaging applications. Whether you’re adding a light pollution filter to increase contrast within your frames, or seeking to isolate certain wavelengths through narrowband imaging, Apertura has you covered. To install your filter, a few steps ensue: (1) Remove the reducer from your telescope, (2) unthread the dust cap, (3) remove the front threaded bezel from the reducer, (4) invert this bezel so that the inside is visible, (5) thread in your filter, and finally, (6) reinstall this bezel onto the reducer. You’re now ready to image!
