Details:
Removed the collimator section from a lunt hydrogen alpha ls50tha pressure tuned etalon and replaced it with a baader planetarium tz4s for a customer. This allows greater magnficiation and direct integration into a 100mm x 1000m0 telescope with a 2" focuser. Although there is a 4x barlow affect added by the tz4s; there is a 175mm plano convex optic in the beack end of the etalon so it now functions as a reduced 2300mm focal length at the eyepiece. The standard lunt blocking filter is threaded directly to the back of the etalon for safety.
