2-inch M48 Double Fine-tuning Focusing Base for Astronomical Telescope

2-inch M48 Double Fine-tuning Focusing Base for Astronomical Telescope

The 2-inch M48 double fine-tuning focusing base is designed for astrophotography and precision focusing in refracting, Newtonian reflecting, and Schkar astronomical telescopes. It features a 39mm focusing travel with 0.1mm accuracy and M48 external threads for direct camera attachment. The spiral design ensures smooth, continuous focusing motion.

  • 39 mm focusing travel enables precise focus adjustment for astrophotography and long-exposure imaging
  • 0.1 mm focus accuracy supports critical alignment in high-resolution astronomical imaging
  • M48 external threads allow direct connection to camera bodies without additional adapters
  • Spiral focusing mechanism delivers smooth, continuous motion without backlash or jerking
  • Compatible with any 2-inch focus mount, ensuring integration across multiple telescope models
