Orion 0.8x Reducer-Flattener for EON 130mm ED

The Orion 0.8x Reducer-Flattener is a must-have accessory for EON 130mm ED Triplet Refractor users looking to elevate their astrophotography experience. This premium accessory ensures that your photographs are not only wonderfully sharp but also edge to edge, thanks to its excellent field correction capabilities. By reducing field curvature, the Reducer-Flattener minimizes star image elongation at the edges, providing a flat field that is ideal for capturing stunning celestial images.

Optical and Technical Specifications

The 0.8x Reducer-Flattener is designed to thread directly onto the focuser drawtube of your EON 130mm ED, offering a secure fit without any flexure. Its male threads on the camera side measure 48mm in diameter, wider than standard 42mm T-mount threads, which significantly reduces the likelihood of vignetting, especially with full-frame camera sensors. The 55mm back focus distance ensures proper camera placement, and the fully multi-coated optics maximize light transmission for brighter, more vivid images. Compatibility is exclusive to EON 130mm ED models equipped with a 2.5" R&P focuser, excluding older 3" Crayford focuser models.

Enhancing Astrophotography with the Orion Reducer-Flattener

For astrophotography enthusiasts seeking to capture wider fields and shorter exposure times, the Orion 0.8x Reducer-Flattener is a game-changer. This innovative accessory reduces the effective focal length by 20%, transforming your EON 130mm ED from 910mm to 728mm (f/7.0 to f/5.6), which not only widens your field of view but also brightens your images. The Reducer-Flattener is perfect for DSLR and astronomical camera users, providing exceptional performance for both full-frame and APS-C sensor cameras. With its secure fit, reduced vignetting, and technical precision, the Orion Reducer-Flattener is an essential tool for anyone aiming to take their astrophotography to the next level.
