The newly designed high definition ED lens on the ED103S gives excellent optical performance with a short optical tube for easy handling. The new ED lenses feature brighter images from the shorter f/7.7 focal ratio and capture crisp, pinpoint star images for your eye’s enjoyment. The new ED glass produces clear and high contrast viewing, virtually free of false color. The design uses newly developed, environmentally friendly glass technology, free of hazardous lead that helps to support a cleaner global environment.
The optical tube comes equipped with a metal carry handle for easy one-hand carrying.
The new lenses focus the full visible spectrum of visible light to a critical point much more accurately than past ED product.
