The Multi-Purpose Coma Corrector (MPCC) from Baader Planetarium virtually eliminates the effects of coma in fast Newtonian reflector telescopes. Designed for astrophotography with telescopes having focal ratios from f/4 - f/6, the MPCC does note extend the focal length of a telescope’s optical system as some other coma correctors do, so it won’t slow the "speed" (f-ratio) of the optics or narrow the feild of view. You’ll get gorgeous deep-space images with tack-sharp stars across the full width of a 35mm or smaller imaging sensor.

For imaging with digital SLR cameras, only the MPCC is required - additional spacer rings are not required. (You WILL need a T-ring for your particular camera model, of course). The MPCC is designed for a nominal 55mm distance from the mounting flange to the camera sensor (55mm is the standard flange-to-sensor distance for all DSLRs, measured from the front of the T-ring to the image plane). For use with CCD cameras, you may need one or more T-thread extension or "spacer" rings to achieve the correct distance between the MPCC and the camera’s imaging sensor. (Orion carries a T-thread Spacer Ring Kit, sold separately).

The MPCC inserts into 2" telescope focusers and has male T-threads on the camera side. It’s also threaded to accept standard 2" (48mm) filters. The optics are multi-coated on all air-to-glass surfaces for maximum light throughput.

Combine a fast Newtonian reflector with the affordable MPCC and your favorite imaging camera, and you’ll be all set to capture amazing flat field images of deep-sky treasures. it really works!
