+ | In our family of telescopes, this is the fastest telescope with the largest field of view and is therefore most commonly used for wide field observations. The Baader UFC (Universal Filter Changer) is available for this telescope with narrow band high speed filters as well as a complete set of SOLAN/SDSS filters. | ||
