Looking to expand the field of view of your Askar 60F Flat-Field Refractor? Askar has just the solution! With its rated 0.75x reducing factor, this accessory shortens the focal length of your telescope for broader, more expansive imaging opportunities.

Housing three internal lens elements, this reducer upholds the incredible sharpness delivered by the Askar 60F. Not only can you expect crisp, highly detailed images, the rated 44 mm image circle helps collect vast scenes of the night sky. Enjoy attaching some of today’s largest imaging sensors to your Askar 60F for pristine, high resolution images. With this reducer attached, the native focal ratio of f/6.8 is brought down to f/5.1. This means your imaging projects can be completed in a more timely manner thanks to the heightened speed!
How to Connect Your Reducer
To install this Askar 60F Reducer, a few simple steps ensue. Within the box of your Askar 60F, you should have received a multi-part photographic reducer. First, detach the M64 to M64 adapter of this photographic extension tube (unit “A” in this diagram). This will leave the M64 to M48 portion (unit “B” in this diagram). Next, remove the caps on the reducer, and screw in the “B” portion of the photographic adapter to the side of the reducer with the wider threads. Finally, screw the reducer into the Askar 60F, and you’re set to image!
