R130S OTA GP-Trim 

Great entry into Vixen quality! The R130S optical tube 

has 5.1” aperture and yields 0.89 arc-sec of resolution. 

At f/5.5 this is great for wide-field viewing and imaging 

of extended objects. 6x30 finder and 1¼” eyepiece 

adapter. (Shown with optional eyepiece, tube rings & 

dovetail plate on GP mount.) 

Model # TS-ON-8695          Wt: 3.7 kg / 8.2 lbs 

Design 

Newtonian reflector telescopes are 

completely free of chromatic aberration, 
and they are generally less expensive 
than refractor telescopes of equal 
aperture. The parabolic mirror reflectors 

have neither chromatic aberration nor 
spherical aberration and their center 
image is extremely sharp.  

 
Vixen’s unique sliding focus mount (for 
the R130S and R150S) has the 

advantage of using a smaller secondary 
mirror that minimizes light loss due to 

secondary mirror obstruction. 

Wide-Field Pleasures Await!

Tele-Extender R130S/R150S

  

Tele-Extenders extend the 

effective focal length of the 

optical system. They can be used 

in place of a Barlow lens for 

imaging applications. Extends 

the focal length of the R150S 

from 750mm to 1500mm (f/10) 

and the R130S from 720mm to 

1440mm (f/11). 

Model # AV-TE-3631

 

 

 

Focal Reducer R130S/R150S

 

Focal reducers shorten the 

effective focal length of 

telescopes to provide wider 

visual fields and faster f-ratios 

for astrophotography. This focal 

reducers is for astrophotography 

only. Shortens the focal length of 

the R150S from 750mm to 

652mm (f/4.3) and the R130S 

from 720mm to 626mm (f/4.8).

Newtonian:

  

150mm/5.9” @ f/5.0 

R150S OTA GP-Trim 

The 5.9” clear aperture of the R150S optical tube and 

f/5 focal ratio results in a potent, wide-field photo-

visual system with 0.77 arc-sec of resolution. A 6x30 

finder and 1¼” eyepiece adapter are included. (Shown 

with optional eyepiece, tube rings and dovetail plate 

on GP-type mount.)
