Askar 60F 0.75× Reducer - Full Frame Reducer for Askar 60F

Visit Askar 60F 0.75× Reducer is a focal reducer specially designed for telescopes. Askar 60F Flat-Field. Compact, lightweight and powerful, this accessory transforms the astrograph into an even faster and more suitable system for wide-field imaging of the deep sky.

Thanks to its 0.75×, the telescope to a focal ratio of f/5.1, with advanced field correction to preserve fine, homogeneous stars even in the corners of modern Full Frame sensors.

The enlarged photographic field and reduced exposure times make this reducer particularly interesting for nomadic astrophotographers and wide-field imaging enthusiasts.

Turn your Askar 60F into an ultra-fast f/5.1 astrograph

Once installed on the Askar 60F, the reducer reduces the native focal length:

  • From 408 mm to 311 mm
  • From f/6.8 to f/5.1

This reduction brings several important benefits:

  • Shorter exposure times
  • Wider photographic field
  • Improved light collection
  • More effective imaging under medium skies
  • Simplified capture of large deep-sky objects

The reducer is particularly suitable for :

  • The great nebulae
  • Rich stellar fields
  • The Milky Way's extended regions
  • Large open clusters
  • Weak objects requiring a lot of signal

Full Frame integrated field correction

The Askar 60F 0.75× Reducer does more than just shorten the focal length. It also incorporates a field correction to effectively limit field curvature and preserve excellent star quality across the entire sensor.

This design guarantees :

  • Fine stars in the center of the field
  • Good image homogeneity
  • Excellent Full Frame compatibility
  • Optimum use of modern sensors

The supported image circle reaches 44 mm, This makes it easy to use with full-format 24×36 mm sensors.

Optimized triplet optical design

The reducer is based on an optical formula with three lenses specifically optimized to work with the Askar 60F.

This formula covers :

  • Uniform field reduction
  • Good optical correction
  • Effective aberration limitation
  • Excellent compatibility with modern sensors

The result is a clean, well-corrected photographic field, perfectly suited to modern wide-field astrophotography.

Standard backfocus 55 mm

The Askar 60F 0.75× Reducer adopts a standard backfocus of 55 mm measured from M48 male thread.

This distance greatly facilitates integration with :

  • Astronomical CMOS cameras
  • DSLR
  • Hybrid cameras
  • Filter wheels
  • Tilt plates
  • Standard astrophotographic accessories

The photographic tube supplied with the Askar 60F includes :

  • M54x0.75 adapter
  • M48x0.75 adapter

Installation of the gearbox is therefore quick, simple and particularly intuitive.

2-inch filter compatibility

The reducer incorporates a standard thread M48x0.75 compatible with 2-inch astronomical filters.

This compatibility allows direct mounting of :

  • Narrowband filters
  • Duoband filters
  • Anti-light pollution filters
  • UV/IR Cut filters
  • LRGB filters

This approach greatly simplifies optical train design and reduces the need for additional adapters.

Compact, lightweight CNC design

The Askar 60F 0.75× Reducer benefits from precision CNC manufacturing ensuring :

  • Excellent mechanical rigidity
  • Precise optical alignment
  • Good durability
  • Top-of-the-range finish

With only 0.2 kg, yet it remains perfectly suited to nomadic setups and lightweight frames.

The gearbox is supplied with front and rear threaded metal plugs to protect the optical surfaces from dust during storage and transport.

Robust mechanical connection

Both ends are threaded M50x1, guaranteeing :

  • A stable connection
  • Excellent mechanical precision
  • Limited bending
  • Good optical stability

This design helps maintain consistent image quality even with modern high-resolution sensors.
