The LS80MT Premium Kit represents the highest level of performance in Lunt Solar Systems' 80 mm solar range. Designed around a premium FPL53 ED lens with ion-assisted broadband multi-coating, this system offers outstanding optical quality for both H-Alpha solar observation and night-time astronomy.
The internal module SFPT Double Stack incorporates two independent Pressure-Tuned standards operating in series to achieve a combined bandwidth of less than 0.28 Å. This advanced Double Stack system offers exceptional chromospheric contrast and unique tuning flexibility thanks to its two independent True Doppler tuners.
The LS80MT Premium is a truly universal, top-of-the-range instrument capable of switching from high-precision solar observation to an 80 mm f/7 ED refractor for lunar, planetary and deep-sky observation.
The LS80MT Premium is based on a lens FPL53 ED doublet 80 mm f/7 with ion-assisted broadband anti-reflective treatment.
This configuration guarantees :
FPL53 glass is particularly sought-after for high-end instruments requiring very high optical precision.
The internal module SFPT Double Stack uses two Pressure-Tuned calibrators operating in series.
Each standard has its own independent True Doppler adjustment system.
This advanced architecture enables :
Unlike mechanical tilt-tuned systems, this internal architecture maintains perfect alignment over the entire adjustment range.
With a bandwidth of less than 0.28 Å and an aperture of 80 mm, the LS80MT Premium reveals an exceptional level of detail:
Magnetic structures become visible in real time with a level of finesse rarely achieved on instruments of this diameter.
With the H-Alpha modules removed, the LS80MT Premium becomes a high-end 80 mm f/7 ED refractor:
The same FPL53 ED lens used for solar applications also guarantees excellent performance in classical astronomy.
The blocking filter B1800 offers a clear opening of 18 mm:
This filter is ideal for advanced solar astrophotography.
The LS80MT Premium incorporates a Rack & Pinion 2″ dual-speed eyepiece holder with 10:1 reduction:
Focusing accuracy is essential to fully exploit the performance of Double Stack.
The zoom eyepiece supplied allows instant adjustment of magnification:
Features :
The multifunction solar handle makes it easy to carry and point:
