It reduces the telescope's focal ratio by a factor of 0.63, F/10 telescopes are converted to f/6.3

What this means is the f/6.3 focal reducer enables  a reduction of the photographic exposure time by about 50 %

Our focal reducer will not only shorten the focal length of your telescope,

but will also significantly improve the edge of the field of view by flattening the curved  focal plane inherent in the Schmidt Cassergrain design.
