The Explore Scientific FCD100 80mm Air-Spaced Triplet APO paired with the Field Flattener for f/5–f/7 refractors and the iEXOS-100 PMC-Eight GoTo Mount forms a precision astrophotography system designed for sharp, flat, high-contrast deep-sky images.

The FCD100 triplet uses premium HOYA ED glass to deliver excellent color correction and pinpoint stars. With the included FF2 field flattener, stars remain sharp across the entire frame—ideal for wide-field imaging with APS-C or full-frame cameras.

The iEXOS-100 GoTo mount provides accurate tracking using the PMC-Eight multi-processor system with wireless control. Two CW22-00 counterweights ensure stable balance when using heavier cameras and accessories.

Whether you're starting astrophotography or building a portable premium rig, this all-in-one package delivers professional-grade results.
