The Takahashi TOA-150 is a high-end apochromatic refractor designed to deliver exceptional performance in visual observation and astrophotography. With a 150 mm aperture and an f/7.3 focal ratio, it features an ortho-apochromatic triplet objective with air-spaced fluorite ED lenses, ensuring outstanding chromatic correction and exceptional contrast. Its 1,100 mm long optical tube includes a retractable dew shield and a 4-inch rack-and-pinion focuser with a microfocuser, ideal for deep-sky imaging.

This telescope is equipped with a Moravian G4-1600 camera, which uses a large-format CCD sensor, providing high-resolution, low-noise images essential for capturing subtle details in deep-sky objects. The combination of the TOA-150B with this camera enables professional-quality astronomical imaging.

The system is mounted on a Paramount ME equatorial mount, renowned for its high load capacity and precise tracking. This mount is ideal for advanced astrophotography, allowing extended observing sessions with accurate and stable tracking.

Together, the Takahashi TOA-150B, the Moravian G4-1600 camera, and the Paramount ME mount form a high-performance astronomical observation and imaging system, suitable for advanced amateur astronomers as well as professional applications.
