TAKAHASHI'S Incredible TOA-130 Refractor

Read some of the great feedback we get regarding Takahashi products like the new "Extra-Wide-Field" TAK-UW eyepieces


  TAKAHASHI ENGINEERS HAVE BEEN DESIGNING THE BEST APOCHROMATIC REFRACTOR OPTICS FOR A VERY LONG TIME. IN FACT TAKAHASHI OPTICS IN GENERAL ARE WELL-KNOWN FOR THEIR HIGHEST CONTRAST, PERFECT COLOUR CORRECTION, AND SUPERIOR SHARPNESS! BUT THERE IS MORE - TAKAHASHI 'TSA' AND 'TOA' SERIES OF REFRACTORS SHOW AN UNMATCHED 'STREHL RATIO' OF 0.992!! THIS MEANS THAT THESE REFRACTORS ARE WITHIN 99.2% OF PERFECTION!! - WHEN WE THINK THAT A 0.95 STREHL RATIO IS CONSIDERED EXCELLENT, IT IS NO WONDER THAT AN ARTICLE IN ASTRONOMICS CONCLUDES BY SAYING :

"...QUITE SIMPLY PUT, THE TAKAHASHI 'TOA' AND 'TSA' OPTICS HAVE NO EQUAL!"

Click HERE to see what the combination of an
expert astro-photographer like Marcus Davies
and the a great  instrument like the
TAKAHASHI TOA-150B Apochromatic Refractor
can do
!

Dave Stanicic - FS60CB Astrophotograph
This great image shows what even the smallest Takahashi refractor, the FS-60CB, is capable of when used as an astrograph.
Dave Stanicic - TOA130 Astrophotograph
This image was taken with the old model TOA-130 5" APO Refractor... You could just imagine what results you could get with the new improved TOA-130NS! Obviously you do not need a 10" instrument to obtain astro-photos like this!

Great images taken with the TAKAHAHSI FSQ-106ED 4" Quadruplet Refractor

Seagull Nebula Galaxy M31 Jellyfish Nebula IC443 Witch Head Nebula IC2118

There is no doubt that TAKAHASHI make the best telescope optics on the market! Their TSA-102S, for example, is not called the SUPER Apochromat for nothing! As U.S. expert refractor-reviewer, Larry Carlino, stated at the end of his TSA-102 review:

"...As to the optics, it's pretty difficult to improve upon perfection!"
