BAADER MARK V BinoViewer ($1800) + Postage

Pristine Baader Mark V Binoviewer with T2 Quick Changer (1 Year Old)

Pending to Phil

Specifications

Clear Aperture: 1.1" at the prism entrance w/o the compensator and 0.96" with the compensator.
Weight: 2.25 lbs with Mirror or Prism Diagonal and 2" Nosepiece

The Mark V Binocular Viewer is well suited for lunar, planetary and double star viewing.

To achieve the definitive image it is better to do your magnification using a barlow in front of the Mark V than to increase magnification with short focal length eyepieces. A narrower light cone passing through the binocular viewer is what provides the sharpest images.

Examples of Approximate Magnifications:
  • 1.25x using standard configuration with 2" Nosepiece and 1.25x Compensator
  • 1.70x using standard configuration with 2" Nosepiece and 1.70x Compensator
  • 2.40x BARADV threaded directly into the Mirror or Prism Diagonal - no Compensator
  • 2.60x using standard configuration with 2" Nosepiece and 2.60x Compensator
  • 3.00x BARADV threaded directly into the Mirror or Prism Diagonal and 1.25x Compensator
  • 4.70x BPFFC threaded directly into the Mirror or Prism Diagonal - no Compensator
