Product Details
Like other reducers in the Optec NextGEN series, all surfaces have a broadband multilayer coating optimized for the 450 - 650nm passband. Filter mounted in front as with the IFW are compatible. In fast systems, it is always better optically to mount the filters in front of any reducer to keep the incoming rays closer to being normal (collimated) to the filter surface.
The Optec Ultra WideField 0.7XL reducer was redesigned and improved in late 2006. It now has a much longer back focus distance and uses the same mounting plate adapters as the 0.33X and 0.50X models. This allows the use of this reducer with SBIG cameras having the CFW-8/10 filter wheels mounted.
The optical design of the Optec NextGEN 0.7XL was done with Zemax and optimized for four field points using wavelengths of 450, 550 and 650 nm. The goal was for the smallest blur diameters for the four field points. The system was modeled using an idealized telesope of f/8 and with perfect optics. The resulting lens curvatures of this designed were made without adjusting the radii to the optical lab's tool list. Custom tools were made for all surfaces.
