Motor Focusers for Precise Focusing
Motor Focusers for Precise Focusing
A motor focuser takes care of the fine adjustment at the focuser and makes focusing smooth, precise and repeatable. This is comfortable for visual observing and especially useful in astrophotography, where the focus must remain exact during a series of exposures.
Why use a motor focuser?
- fine focusing without touching the telescope
- less vibration while focusing
- repeatable focus positions for imaging and focus comparisons
- convenient control via hand controller, computer or smartphone, depending on the system
For visual observing and astrophotography
The advantage of motorised focusing becomes particularly clear at high magnifications and with a narrow depth of focus. In astrophotography, focusing can also be automated and combined with a temperature sensor to compensate for focus drift caused by changing temperatures.
Choosing the right system
This category includes motor focusers, controllers, hand controllers and temperature sensors from different manufacturers. Before ordering, check that the motor fits your focuser or telescope, that the required power supply is available and that the desired software or standard such as ASCOM, INDI or ASIAIR is supported.
