Omegon Modulfinder - Finder and guide for small telescopes

Not all telescopes can support a large guide tube and two heavy clamps. What about smaller telescopes at the mount's weight limit? Or do you want to use a more compact guide telescope?

That's what Modulfinder is for. This mini guide telescope easily attaches to the finder shoe. And now you can start photographing nebulae and galaxies...

  • Achromatic optics with 50 mm aperture and 180 mm focal length
  • Mini guide telescope for bright guide stars
  • For telescopes with focal lengths of 1500 mm or less
  • Connection to autoguider or 1.25" eyepieces
  • Compatible with any Synta finder shoe

Compact guide telescope for quick coupling

Modern self-guided cameras are so sensitive that they no longer require the optical system of large guide telescopes. It is often better to use shorter focal lengths with autoguiding systems. So why use a large telescope if a compact one works better?

For these cases we recommend the use of the Modulfinder: This very small guide telescope with a 50 mm aperture fits on any Synta/Vixen finder shoe. With telescopes with a focal length of about 1500 mm it works perfectly and saves a lot of time, since it has never been so easy to attach a guide tube to a telescope as it is now with the Modulfinder...

Three collimation screws for the guide star

The Modulfinder, like any finder, has three screws for collimation of the equipment. With them, the optics of the guide and finder tubes are adjusted to the telescope and, in addition, the nearby guide stars are found.

Also suitable for use with small telescopes

Do you have a smaller telescope or one with a smaller mount and want to take astrophotos? Then the Omegon Modulfinder will come in handy, as it only weighs 450 gr.

Finderscope with eyepieces of your choice

Use the Modulfinder for both things: As a finder or guide tube. When you're not using it to take photos, you can use it to locate astronomical objects as if it were a normal finderscope. For this you can use any eyepiece with the focal length you want or one with a reticle, etc.

Get perfect astrophotos with very little effort.
