The Story

The RedCat 71 is the perfect Apochromatic refractor for photographic astronomers demanding excellence in a small sized telescope.

Note that RedCat 71 is an imaging-only scope and cannot currently be used for visual observing.

The Petzval optical design features a 71mm aperture using FPL-53 glass, and provides a flat image plane without any additional flattener.

The STM-coatings and superb quality provide excellent optical performance and unmatched value.

Dew Heater straps should be at least 12.75" or longer in heated section length. The Kendrick #2008 Dew Strap fits well.
