Helical Focuser
The Lunt Mini is a non-rotating helical focuser that provides a T2 (male) to T2 (female) thread connection. The focuser has 10 mm of precision travel, a brass compression ring for protection of eyepieces, and a locking collar. The T2 thread design is ideal for fine camera/eyepiece focus.
1.25″ Feather Touch Focuser (FT)
