APM LZOS 100mm Triplet APO f/8 3.0″ ZTA

The APM LZOS 100mm Triplet APO f/8 3.0″ ZTA is the  4″ lunar and planetary specialist.

APM-Telescopes decided to manufacture a new design of our apochromatic refractors, using a new designed APM  3″ rack and pinion focuser with 360° rotation of very high quality and very attractive price.

The much lower price is a result on using the Asian made APM 107 alu-tube
