OPTEC Lepus 0.62X Focal Reducer - Standard Edition
The Optec Lepus 0.62X Standard Edition Telecompressor is a versatile focal reducer designed for telescopes equipped with a TCF-S or other standard 2-inch focuser. Housed in a 2-inch barrel-style body, it slips directly into most 2-inch eyepiece receivers for quick and secure installation. It performs especially well with Meade ACF f/10 and f/8 coma-free Schmidt-Cassegrain telescopes, delivering a wider field of view and faster effective focal ratio for astrophotography.
On the camera side, the Lepus uses Optec’s OPTEC-2100 dovetail interface, allowing use of optional camera-specific Lepus mounts that maintain proper back-focus spacing to the image plane. This same interface also allows direct connection to the Pyxis 2-inch rotator in place of the standard nosepiece. Stock DSLR adapters are available for Canon and Nikon cameras, preserving the required 100 mm on-axis back-focus distance. The Lepus can also be used with other telescope designs, though additional refocusing may be required since it is not parfocal. Performance is not guaranteed with all optical systems, and it is not recommended for Ritchey-Chrétien telescopes. Please note that the #19407 Standard Edition does not include a camera-specific mount, so a compatible Variable Length Camera mount or fixed-length adapter must be purchased separately.
Specifications:
- Telescope side: TCF 2-inch nosepiece
- Camera side: Optec-2100 dovetail
- Back-focus: 105 mm from the flange
- Filter threading: M48x0.6
