MEADE
New LX400-ACF 10" Advanced Coma Free optical design. This is Meade's most advanced telescope with precision encoder measured focusing, electronic collimation system, new ultra stable tripod, and much more... The ACF eliminates the secondary mirror holder support vanes (spider) that cause diffraction spikes. Because almost all reflecting telescopes produce diffraction spikes, many people are used to seeing them and don’t consider them an aberration. But in reality, they are a large distortion that reduces image contrast, lowers resolution and presents an unrealistic view of the sky to the eye or the astro-imager. The ACF design reduces the amount of astigmatism that is inherent in the design. The ACF, due to the front corrector plate, is a closed tube design. This keeps the primary optical components protected from dust, moisture and other contaminates that might fall on the optical surfaces of the primary and secondary mirrors.
