Ritchey-Chretien 14" F/8 M-LRC LW is one of the flagship telescope models in the GSO offer, dedicated to the most experienced astrophotography enthusiasts. This instrument allows you to take breathtaking, most spectacular shots, and at the same time demanding moving objects such as nebulae or smaller galaxies.
The optical design of this telescope is a reflector in the Ritchey-Chretien system, which is so far the best system developed for applications in astrophotography. This system is free from the most common optical defects such as coma and spherical and chromatic aberrations, which should be taken into account when using lens telescopes and other types of reflectors. This model is equipped with a primary and secondary mirror made of quartz, whose characteristic feature is high thermal stability, which, combined with a reflective layer with an efficiency of 95 percent and an extensive system of internal baffles, guarantees obtaining perfectly sharp images with excellent contrast and a high level of detail.
This telescope was designed as an open instrument based on a frame made of carbon fiber. The use of this material made it possible to reduce the weight of the entire instrument as much as possible while maintaining high stiffness and stability of the frame (and if that wasn't enough, it still looks great!). Thanks to the frame structure and the use of a built-in cooling system, this telescope needs much less time to equalize temperatures than models with a classic, closed tube. • optical tube of the Ritchey-Chretien system, free from optical defects typical of classic reflectors and refractors • extensive system of internal baffles eliminating light reflections • solid 3.25" extractor with a large adjustment range • quartz primary and secondary mirrors with high-efficiency reflective coatings • light, open carbon fiber structure guaranteeing adequate mechanical stability and quick temperature equalization • built-in cooling system with three fans • optical system: Ritchey-Chretien • main mirror diameter: 14" • focal length: 2854 mm • aperture: f/8 • main mirror: hyperbolic, quartz • reflective coating of the main mirror: Al, 95% reflectivity • secondary mirror: hyperbolic, quartz • reflective coating of the secondary mirror: Al, 95% reflectivity • lift type: 3.25", Crayford • back focus: 288 mm • cooling system: three fans • accessory mounting: Losmandy D sockets (2 pieces) • frame material: carbon fiber • tube length (without extractor): 1156 mm • Tube diameter: TBD • weight (with lift): 27 kg • GSO RC Ritchey-Chretien 14" F/8 M-LRC LW (LightWeight) Truss OTA optical tube • adapter 2" - 1.25" • distance to the lift 25 mm (2 pcs.) • distance to the lift 50 mm (1 pc.) 24 months
