Description

William Optics RedCat 61 f/4.9 Petzval Apo Refractor Telescope

The new William Optics RedCat 61 is the latest in William Optics' line of flattened Petzval refractor telescopes, offering a flat image across a large sensor for unmatched quality across even a full frame sensor. Illuminates a full frame sensor! Also featuring William Optics' patented internal focusing system, compatible with the ZWO EAF. 

NEW internal focuser.

Our new design includes the Patented WO centre focuser with precise internal sliding of fixed optics to prevent image shift.  The integrated position viewing window on the focuser provides instant verification of the graduated numerical display.  The smooth rack and pinion design is incorporated into the focuser to provide super fine adjustability for critical focus.  The internal movement of the optical elements is protected from the elements and can’t come out of alignment.  The redistribution of weight allows for better balance during imaging sessions.

William Optics RedCat 61 f/4.9 Petzval Apo Refractor Telescope WIFD Focuser

The smooth rack and pinion design is incorporated into the focuser to provide super fine adjustability for critical focus. The user can enjoy the benefits of a traditional two speed fine focuser, while not worrying about limitations typically found in traditional rear mounted focusers. The redistribution of weight allows for better balance during imaging sessions. Compatible with ZWO EAF. Also new Electric Rotator will be available in near future.

CAT DESIGN

Improved “CAT” design ring tubes and dovetail base are lighter while remaining equally rigid. The new design allows for better balance with heavy accessories, and has integral placement of the focuser knobs, providing easy access to focusing during imaging.  Included is the popular WO Saddle Bar Handle, critical for rigid guidescope mounting and autoguiding performance.

Super Smooth Field Rotator.  Our field rotator design features smooth camera rotation with markings for degrees and a locking thumbscrew to prevent accidental camera movement, also new Electric Rotator will be available in near future.
