The aluminium tube is internally baffled and uses a retractable dew shield. CNC aluminium mounting ring(s), a carrying handle and a 75 mm-wide dovetail are supplied. The OTA weighs 15.2 kg and measures 920 mm retracted or 1030 mm extended.
Field correction and accessories
A matched field flattener is optional; the manufacturer specifies a 44 mm image height with it fitted. A matched reducer/flattener is also available separately. An aluminium-framed carrying case is supplied. Eyepiece, diagonal and finderscope are not included.
Exact EDX model checked; 45/75 mm values describe mounting-bar width, not length. Corrected image height applies only with its optional matched flattener. Legacy Esprit package items and camera spacing are not transferred.
