6061 Turret
The nPAE 6061 Turret is nPAE’s mid-range eyepiece turret. Set up your eyepieces, cameras, spectrometers, etc when you first start your nights viewings then all you need to do is spin the turret and you can quickly switch between them. All your views remains in the same focal plane. No need to fumble around with the focuser in the dark.
“First impressions of the 6061 Turret do not disappoint, appearing to be a very serious piece of engineering and wonderfully finished with red anodising.” – Alpha Lyrae.
