Focusing and spacing
A separate focuser moves the eyepiece or camera without focusing by shifting the primary mirror. Extension rings are used to accommodate different optical trains. The table labels backfocus from the focuser socket separately from any distance measured from the rear tube surface.
Tube and mounting
This is the carbon fibre-tube configuration. Its published weight, secondary obstruction and mounting rails remain specific to this version; carbon and metal RC assemblies are not interchangeable specifications.
Manufacturer details
Carbon 8-inch RC with GP and Losmandy rails; not the 8.25 kg metal-tube version. Backfocus reference surfaces remain explicit.
