Compact 160mm Newtonian reflector astrograph

Checked 2026-09-10

This catalog includes a 160mm Newtonian reflector that offers a fast F3.4 focal ratio for efficient deep sky imaging. The smaller aperture compared to the N210 makes this version easier to mount and transport while still providing excellent light-gathering performance. It is a dedicated astrograph designed to deliver sharp images of the deep sky.

The optical system is housed in a tube built for stability and thermal management. Because it is a reflector, it avoids the chromatic aberration issues sometimes found in lens-based systems, providing clean color for stars and nebulae. The 160mm mirror provides enough surface area to capture faint celestial details during long exposure sessions.

This model is a strong choice for photographers who want the speed of a fast Newtonian in a more compact form factor. It works well for a wide range of deep sky targets and integrates smoothly with modern CMOS and CCD cameras. The design focuses on providing a reliable platform for consistent astrophotography results.
