      Glaswegkorrektoren (GWK)<\/strong><\/h3>\n
        \n
      • 1,25x<\/strong> (# 2456314): Optical correction with a 20 mm gain in back-focus.<\/li>\n
      • 1,7x<\/strong> (# 2456316): 35 mm back-focus gain, suitable for low-aperture telescopes.<\/li>\n
      • 2,6x<\/strong> (# 2456317): Ideal for very high magnifications with a 65 mm gain in back-focus.<\/li>\n
      • GWK 2\u201d Newton 1,7x<\/strong> (# 2456300): Specific for Newton telescopes to correct coma aberrations.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        Prisms and mirrors T-2<\/strong><\/h3>\n

        Recommended models for minimizing optical length include :<\/p>\n

          \n
        • T-2 90\u00b0 with 32 mm prism<\/strong> (# 2456005)<\/li>\n
        • T-2 BBHS\u00ae Zenitspiegel 36mm<\/strong> With BBHS\u00ae coating for improved reflectivity.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

          The MaxBright II can be configured in several ways to suit your telescope and your needs:<\/p>\n

          1. With T-2 prisms or mirrors:<\/strong><\/p>\n

            \n
          • Recommended for minimizing optical length and ensuring easy focusing.<\/li>\n
          • Using GWK to adjust the optical path.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

            2. With 1.25\u201d or 2\u201d adapters:<\/strong><\/p>\n

              \n
            • Handy if the telescope's back-focus is sufficient.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

              3. With telecentric systems (e.g. SunDancer II) :<\/strong><\/p>\n

                \n
              • Ideal for planetary observations at high magnifications.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                Choice of accessories<\/strong><\/h3>\n
                  \n
                • Glaswegkorrektoren (GWK)<\/strong> Corrects aberrations introduced by prisms and extends focal length. Various correction factors are available (1.25x, 1.7x, 2.6x).<\/li>\n
                • Zenitspiegel and T-2 prisms<\/strong> Offer different optical lengths and are suitable for various telescopes. Examples: T-2 90\u00b0 (32 mm), T-2 BBHS\u00ae for sharp images.<\/li>\n
                • Eyepieces<\/strong> Compatible with 1.25\" eyepieces. Hyperion\u00ae and Morpheus\u00ae series are recommended. Identical eyepieces (same manufacturer and model) are essential for a balanced binocular image.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                  Installation and settings<\/strong><\/h3>\n
                    \n
