About this product

Starfield Gear70 Quadruplet f/5 Petzval APO

The Starfield Optics Gear70Q is crafted for astrophotographers seeking high-quality optics and a flat field across the entire frame. With its 70mm aperture and premium quadruplet design, this apochromatic refractor minimises chromatic aberration, providing sharp, true-colour images of deep-sky objects.

Featuring a 350mm focal length and a fast f/5 focal ratio, the Gear70Q excels at wide-field imaging, making it perfect for capturing expansive targets such as large nebulae, star clusters, and galaxies. When paired with an APS-C sensor, the Gear70Q’s field of view is ideal for framing popular objects like the Andromeda Galaxy (M31), the Pleiades (M45), and the Lagoon Nebula (M8), providing detailed, edge-to-edge sharpness without the need for additional field flatteners.

Building on the success of the Gear60Q, the Gear70Q offers a larger aperture for enhanced light-gathering power, delivering greater detail on faint deep-sky objects. FPL-53 glass ensures exceptional colour correction, allowing you to capture crisp, artefact-free images, even with demanding full-frame and APS-C sensors.

All Startled Gear series telescopes include a functional handle and a carry case designed to hold accessories. There is also a cutout to accommodate an EAF fitted to the focuser. Grab and Go made easy.

Key Features:

• 70mm Quadruplet (4-element) APO refractor design for optimal image clarity and colour fidelity.
• Fully multi-coated optics to maximise light transmission and reduce reflections.
• 350mm focal length with a fast f/5 focal ratio, ideal for wide-field imaging of nebulae, galaxies, and star clusters.
• The 2.5” dual-speed rack & pinion focuser provides smooth, precise focusing adjustments.
• Vixen-style dovetail, ensuring compatibility with a variety of mounts and tripods.
• The flat-field optics provide uniform sharpness across the entire image plane, making it an ideal choice for DSLR or dedicated astrophotography cameras. Whether you're capturing nebulae's vibrant colours or galaxies' intricate details, the Gear70Q ensures every shot is a masterpiece.
