You have quality eyepieces and don't want to use a zoom to replace them all? The Takahashi 4-turret holder is for you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Takahashi turret must be inserted in the 2\" (50.8 mm) barrel of your telescope. A built-in prism, above which a ratcheting revolver rotates, reflects the image at 90°. The turret has 4 outlets accepting eyepieces with 1.25\" (31.75 mm) barrel, with Teflon ring clamp. A fluorescent dot shows you which eyepiece is in position.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe mechanical back distance (MBD) of the turret is 82 mm long. With the optional extension tube S [TKA00105], this is equivalent to the mechanical distance of the 50.8 mm Takahashi mirror diagonal [TKA00543] equipped with its 31.75 mm reducer [TKA00111], that is 117.5 mm. The use of this extension tube is essential to obtain the focus on the following instruments: FC-76DS, FSQ-85ED, FSQ-106ED, FSQ-130ED, Mewlon-250CRS and Mewlon-300CRS.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe turret is designed to be used with Takahashi eyepieces of the Abbe and LE series (except LE40 and LE50, with a 50.8 mm barrel). However, you can use other brands of eyepieces of equivalent size. Wide field eyepieces and heavy models are not recommended. Due to the position of the prism, it is imperative that the mechanical length of the 31.75mm barrel does not exceed 31 mm in length, including the additional filter. The assembly could come into contact with the prism and damage it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe 4-Turret Eyepiece Holder from Takahashi features a click-stop design and eyepiece indicator for determining the ocular currently being used.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe turret holds four 1.25\" eyepieces.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIt's 90° design allows for easy viewing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe 2\" nosepiece provides a solid connection.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOccupying just 81mm of back focus, the turret is suitable for most telescopes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003csection id=\"descriptif\" class=\"bloc_tabs\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wrapper-inner\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-md-12\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab_content\" id=\"car\"\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCHARACTERISTIC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTAKAHASHI 4-TURRET HOLDER\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eItem number\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTATKA00404\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInput mechanical interface\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2\" (50.8 mm) male barrel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOutput mechanical interface\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4 x 1.25\" (31.75 mm) female barrel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMetal Back Distance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e82 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e135 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e100 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e610 g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIn the Box\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTakahashi Turret for 4 eyepieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\" data-mce-style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eManual \u0026amp; Warranty\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"shopify-section-template--16185084641509__description\" class=\"shopify-section\"\u003e\n\u003csection data-section-id=\"template--16185084641509__description\" data-section-type=\"tabbed\" data-url=\"\/\/takahashiamerica.com\/cdn\/shop\/t\/3\/assets\/script.tabbed.js?v=83467205078527531921656105673\" data-carousel-type=\"section\" class=\"container clearfix loaded ignore\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"nine center text-left bottompad clearfix\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"description\" class=\"product-desc tab-body tab-body-content tab-body-id-template--16185084641509__description\" role=\"tabpanel\" aria-labelledby=\"tab-description\" tabindex=\"0\" data-mce-tabindex=\"0\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"tabindex\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/takahashiamerica.com\/pages\/warranty-service?_pos=1\u0026amp;_psq=warranty\u0026amp;_ss=e\u0026amp;_v=1.0\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/takahashiamerica.com\/pages\/warranty-service?_pos=1\u0026amp;_psq=warranty\u0026amp;_ss=e\u0026amp;_v=1.0\"\u003eTakahashi 5-Years Warranty\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Takahashi","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44152229331173,"sku":"TAK-TKA00404","price":764.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0652\/6245\/2965\/files\/takahashi-turret-for-4-eyepieces-tka00404-astronomy-plus-1.jpg?v=1690492127","url":"https:\/\/istronomyplus.com\/products\/takahashi-turret-for-4-eyepieces-tka00404","provider":"Astronomy Plus – Telescopes \u0026 Astrophotography Canada","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
