Home Telescopes Lunt Solar Telescopes Lunt LS40THa B500 H-alpha solar telescope
Solar observation in H-Alpha: prominences, filaments, flares, the most spectacular way to see the Sun - easy and affordable with the LS40THa. Complete H-alpha solar telescope with 40mm aperture, <0.7 Angstrom bandwidth, B500 blocking-filter, and Helical focuser.Delivery TimeDelivery is normally 5-7 business days with this product direct from the supplier via tracked courierFine Tuning and uses standard 1.25" EyepiecesThe LS40THa/B500 is a complete telescope for observing the sun in H-alpha, with 40mm aperture (no central obstruction) and 400mm focal length. The H-alpha wavelength is the most impressive way to observe the sun, showing protuberances at the sun's edge, filaments and flares on the surface, and much more. An Etalon with mechanical tilt-tuning provides <0.7 Angstrom bandwidth. Fine adjustment is achieved with a 1.25 inch Helical focuser. Blocking-filter is the B500, this is good for visual observation of the sun. The star diagonal in which the blocking filter is installed, is equipped as standard for 1.25 inch eyepiece connection.Compact for travelThe easy handling makes this telescope ideal for starting H-Alpha solar observation. Due to its compact dimensions it is also a good travel telescope for the experienced solar observers.The LS40THa telescopes are available with choice of B500, B600 or B1200 blocking filters. The larger blocking filters provide less edge obstruction and a larger field of view for visual observation and photography. Please note that these telescopes have only a very small back focus and therefore photography is difficult. We recommend special astro cameras for photography, which have a very short distance to the sensor, such as the BRESSER Full HD camera item number 4959050.Features Aperture: 40mm (no central obstruction, 2-lens refractor) Focal length: 400mm Bandwidth: <0.7 Angstrom Tuning: mechanical tilt-tuning Blocking filter: B500 with 1.25 inch connection Focuser: Helical focuser Dovetail bar at standard GP-level 1/4-20 tapped base (standard thread for photo-tripods) Sol-Searcher included Weight: 1.2kg Length: 41cmIncluded LS40THa Solar Telescope B500 blocking filter in star-diagonal housing 1.25 inch Helical focuser Dovetail bar (GP level) Sol-Searcher Instruction manual
