Antlia OAG and filter drawer assembly is an innovative accessory that integrates filter drawer and OAG. It allows you to utilize your primary imaging camera and telescope for auto-guiding, without needing a heavy additional guide scope. The OAG uses a small internal pick-off prism as a mirror to reflect part of the incoming light from the telescope to your independent guide camera. Since the off-axis guiding and imaging camera shares the same image train as the main detector, it handles very well with all bending and tilting that may be present in your setup, and you will achieve tracking accuracy greater than you would with a separate guide scope.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAntlia OAG and Filter Drawer Assembly Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLarge pick-out prism 12*12mm, which allows the use of a larger guiding sensor and therefore a greater selection of guide stars.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMono-block (one-piece) design with the OAG body directly connected to the filter drawer.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComfortably fits APS-C sensor and Full Frame sensor.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe total thickness plus both side adapters are 37.5mm.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIt’s right for cameras with 17.5mm back focus distance without additional adapters.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe OAG has been CNC machined from a single aluminium block and provides a very rigid platform for guiding.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-quality helical focuser assembly, a 1.25-inch helical focuser with a generous 10mm of travel allows you will find the optimum focus for your guide star.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe prism height can be adjusted to better illuminate the field of view of your auto guider.
