Internals are painted matt-black to reduce reflections and increase contrast. The built-in dew-shield further reduces reflections and protects the guide-scope’s optics from condensation.

It has unusually high maximum focus travel of 34mm, 22mm can be achieved via the guide-scope’s retractable tube which is marked in single mm intervals.

The remaining 12mm can be achieved by the guide-scope’s high precision non-rotating micro-focuser which also has a sub-millimetre scale to aid re-positioning and accurate focusing.

The non-rotating focuser assembly guarantees that the camera will not turn while focusing which in turn aids framing.
