Description
<![CDATA[The Askar FRA500 is a 90mm f/5.6 quintuplet flatfield astrograph from the popular FRA (Flat-field Refractive Astrograph) series. With 500mm focal length and built-in flat field correction, it bridges the gap between the compact FRA400 and the larger FRA600.
The quintuplet optical design delivers an exceptionally flat field and outstanding chromatic correction, making it a true imaging-first instrument. The faster f/5.6 focal ratio compared to the PHQ series means shorter exposure times, ideal for capturing faint nebulae and extended objects.
The FRA500 can also serve as a high-quality telephoto lens for daytime photography. Its versatile design accepts a wide range of cameras and accessories.
