PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The Sharpstar 61EDPH II is a premium compact triplet apochromatic refractor tailored for astrophotographers seeking speed, sharpness, and clarity. Upgraded from its predecessor, it incorporates an advanced ED element within a fully multi-coated optical system, delivering high-contrast, color-accurate images across a wide field of view. With a fast f/5.5 focal ratio and 335mm focal length, it excels in capturing detailed wide-field shots of nebulae, star clusters, and the Milky Way.

Designed with portability in mind, the OTA features a built-in dew shield, a robust 2.5-inch rack and pinion focuser with rotator, and comes equipped with tube rings, carrying handle, and a 10cm V-style dovetail plate. Whether mounted on a travel rig or a full imaging setup, the 61EDPH II strikes a perfect balance between precision performance and lightweight convenience.
