Takahashi just quoted delivery of first quarter 2025 on this particular model. We will consider any sale of this scope as of this date a special order. This means it is non-refundable and you will own this telescope. This isn't a normal way for us to conduct business, but we don't want to create a false economy for Takahashi or get stuck with tens of thousands of dollars of it as well.
The Takahashi Mewlon Series of Dall-Kirkham Telescopes by Takahashi combines refractor-like performance in a larger folded optic reflector design. The Mewlon series comes in three objective diameters: 210 mm, 250 mm and 300 mm. This revolutionary design has set the standard in folded optic systems.
The precision optical surfaces of the Mewlon series is at least λ/20. This results a highly concentrated airy disc, resulting in pin point star images and high contrast fields. The primary mirror is installed in a specially designed mirror cell that is designed to reduce astigmatism.
