Product description

More about the series ZenithStar...

Z 61: Small can be this beautiful

The new ZenithStar 61 and William Optics’ most versatile and lightest weight apochromats.

Its clear optics allow high magnifications and sharp imaging during astrophotography and nature photography using any SLR camera. Thanks to its large visual field, the entire Moon or (with a filter) the Sun can be viewed at once. A special flattener for photography is available in the accessories section.

The FPL-53 glass, which is built into the ZenithStar 61's lens, has considerably better dispersion properties than the previously used FPL-51 (ED). FPL-53 is very close to fluoride glass in terms of quality but is considerably cheaper. Therefore, FPL-53 is sometimes also referred to as synthetic fluoride.

It not only matters which telescope you buy but also where you buy it. Our additional services:

  • We are a leading telescope dealer and know the devices we sell. Our customer service team will gladly help you after your purchase if you have problems with assembly or operation.
  • We provide a copy of the 80-page Telescope ABC beginners handbook with every telescope.
