Telescopes: Achromat 102f6

The Achro 102f6 was the first in a series of Burgess Optical achro refractors. The OTA is shown on a photo tripod and head with the SWA 38 EP. What looks like a bite out of the focuser end of the scope is actually a Burgess Optical red dot finder, which, being black, blends into the night background.

The Achro 102f6 was discontinued in 2004, with the last ones sold in early 2005.

Because of a problem with the objective lens, purchasers were given a discounted price and the option to upgrade to a semi-APO lens at a future date. Purchasers were also offered the option of receiving a fine focuser at a later date, after the fine focusers were fully developed.

Burgess Optical wants every customer to be satisfied with their purchase. Bill Burgess has personally offered a full refund to any unhappy Achro 102f6 purchasers.

Further info about the fine focuser, finder scope, and lens upgrade is here.
