Askar

The very new beginning of year 2021 witnesses the advent of our FMA135 astrograph which has inherited the consistent quality,
compactness and versatility.

ASKAR FMA180 objective lens features Triplet air-spaced APO design,
includes two pieces of ED (extra-low dispersion) glass, providing excellent correction of chromatic aberration

Since the FMA135 and FMA180 have hit the market, we receive numerous positive feedback.
It’s really an encouragement for us to further introduce our FMA230 astrograph, hoping to offer more choices for our customers.

The world-first 200mm professional astrophotographic lens is designed with a similar appearance as an ordinary camera lens which features an integrated structure.

This year, we launched the FRA300 Pro —— the smallest 60mm F/5 Petzval astrograph with the fastest native focal ratio in the FRA series so far with a focal length of just 300mm.

After a long preparation, we launch the new Askar 103APO, dedicated to enabling more amateurs to own a high-performance astrograph and explore the mysteries of the universe to their heart's content.

Welcome to our brand new Askar FRA series! The FRA, which stands for “Flat-field Refractive Astrograph”, is a refractive equipment with built-in flat field correction.

The aperture of 120mm gives it an inherent advantage in terms of light-gathering power, resolution and contrast, allowing the photographer to gather more light and present more details and brighter objects in the image.

Askar introduces the brand-new 80PHQ refractive astrograph. And it’s the second long-focal-ratio astrograph from the PHQ- family.

Sharpstar Optics introduces Askar FRA500 astrograph, which is the youngest among the well-known FRA- family, to our customers.
Compared with its siblings, the 500mm-focal-length refractor has an aperture size of 90mm.

As the first long-focal-ratio Flatfield astrograph from Askar, 107PHQ is born with a special mission: whether you are just getting started in astrophotography, or an enthusiast who has been quite familiar with all equipment and devices

Sharpstar announces the newest addition to its Askar FRA series, the Askar FRA600/5.6.
Following the excellent optical performance of its first FRA400/5.6

130PHQ has a larger size than 107PHQ, with an aperture 23mm larger than 107PHQ. 130PHQ has a focal ratio of f/7.7 which is longer than 107PHQ’ s f/7, and a focal length of 1000mm.

As a large aperture refractor, Askar 185APO fills the market vacancy, continues the high quality and cost-effectiveness of Askar APO series telescopes, and provides a new choice for astronomical amateurs.
