About
Stellarvue's largest apochromatic refractor: a 180 mm f/7 triplet built from two super-low-dispersion elements and a matching Lanthanum element, hand-figured in-house. The machined aluminium tube is fully baffled, painted instrument white outside and ultra-flat black inside, with a fully retracting dew shield. Reviewed in the October 2026 issue of Sky and Telescope.
