Balanced Performance for FCT-65D and FC-50 SystemsThe Multi Reducer 0.85×-M brings Takahashi’s renowned optical precision to the mid-range fluorite class. Designed for the FCT-65D and the discontinued FC-50, this reducer shortens the focal length to 340 mm, achieving a bright, flat, and sharply corrected field across a 44 mm image circle. Aberrations are minimized for professional-grade astrophotography results. Positioned between the FU Reducer 0.65× and the FC/FS Multi Flattener 1.04×, the 0.85×-M gives imagers flexible options to tailor focal length and field of view for any celestial target.
