If your astrophoto aspirations go beyond our 4.5" Imaging Reflector, step up to our Orion 6" Newtonian Imaging Telescope Optical Tube. Its performance compares head-to-head with many high-end refractors, but at a fraction of the price.

With its large 6" (150mm) parabolic mirror, this compact f/5 astrograph is optimized to fully illuminate the imaging chip of Orion StarShoot charge coupled device cameras and most digital SLRs, rendering exquisite detail even with short exposures. Added tube length in front of the secondary mirror blocks glare for improved contrast. Images are virtually coma free and, of course, there's no chromatic aberration.

The focuser is a low-profile, 2" Crayford-style design made of machined, anodized aluminum and it has coarse and fine (11:1) focus controls. It comes with a 1.25" compression ring adapter and a dovetail base for an Orion finder scope.

Put the Orion 6" Newtonian Imaging Telescope Optical Tube Imaging Reflector on any Orion mount and you'll have one awesome telescope for imaging! And when you want a break from that, just pop in an eyepiece for brow-raising visual adventures.

Available as optical tube assembly with no accessories.
