Simply put: a joy to use. You will be blown away by the small details you can observe through this APO 130mm; fine details of DSOs, stunning resolution both visually or during astrophotography. Until yesterday this was only a dream at this price! When it comes to world-class refractor telescopes, the William Optics FLT 132 Triplet APO Refractor Telescope is optically unbeatable.

It features a top-quality triplet air-spaced objective crafted from fluorite glass. This scope is extremely sharp and has a great color correction, outstanding contrast and razor-sharp resolution. It is ideal for astrophotography.

Among its many fine points, the William Optics FLT 132 Triplet APO Refractor Telescope features an extra-smooth 3.5″ new 2014 model Premium Rack & Pinion: a treat to use during astrophotography. No more image shifting!

It is 360 degree rotatable… an extra-heavy duty work of art with large aluminum knobs. The William Optics FLT 132 Triplet APO Refractor Telescope is a patented design which has stainless steel reinforcement inserts on both sides and on the back to allow heavy loads without problems. Includes a graduated scale for precise camera alignment. Despite of its 130mm objective, the William Optics FLT 132 Triplet APO Refractor Telescope is still very compact and solid. The focuser is so strong there is no need for a locking screw.

What’s more, the two-speed microfocuser is standard on all units. Aside from the simply beautiful fit and finish, the WO FLT 132 includes mounting rings, powder-painted white CNC-machined aluminum tube, golden finish, retractable dewshield, anodized 360 degree rotatable focuser and dewshield cap. When it comes to attention to details, there’s none finer than the William Optics FLT 132 Triplet APO Refractor Telescope.

You’ll find quality from the highly precise CNC machined lens cell to the solid CNC-machined mounting rings included in the price. You’ll also get a 2″ and 1.25″ adapter with brass anti-marring compression rings and a practical and safe high quality soft case.

Though you will never need it, you have a 2-year warranty from WO, and the certainty that we will be there to assist you even beyond that, if you need!
