Product description

Pegasus Astro Prodigy Microfocuser

The Pegasus Astro Prodigy Microfocuser is a robust 3" motorised focuser that allows you to precisely adjust and remotely control the focus of your telescope equipment.

Its robust mechanical design ensures that the Prodigy Microfocuser can carry up to 10 kg of equipment - absolutely accurate and tilt-free. The focuser has a focus travel of 25 mm and a free aperture of 76 mm / 3".

Rotation adjustment: The focuser allows adjustable rotation / precise orientation on both sides. This helps you to easily fit the microfocuser to your telescope and also place your camera with the desired orientation.

Telescope connection: The focuser accepts various types of telescope adapters for connection to Newtonians, Celestron SCT Edge, GSO/TS RC models and refractors (adaptors für Takahashi FSQ-85ED und Skywatcher Esprit 100 ED to be relased soon).
