ZWO FF130 – High-End Petzval Astrograph

ZWO built the FF130 as a premium apochromatic flatfield Petzval quadruplet for serious astrophotographers. Its fast f/7.7 focal ratio and wide 60mm image circle suit medium format sensors like the ASI461MM Pro. The quadruplet includes two Extra Low Dispersion (ED) glass elements that minimise chromatic aberration. The optics deliver a central RMS spot radius of just 2 microns. You’ll capture pinpoint stars across the entire field.

True Petzval Optics – No Backfocus Hassles

The FF130 uses a true Petzval design, unlike standard ED refractors. You don’t need to set a specific backfocus distance. Just attach your filter wheel, off-axis guider, or any accessory—no spacing calculations required. Focus and go.

Built for Precision Imaging

ZWO designed the FF130 for high-precision deep-sky imaging. The large 60mm image circle and f/7.7 ratio offer excellent performance. The 3.4″ rack and pinion focuser supports the ZWO EAF natively. You won’t need any adapters. It includes a 10:1 reduction gear for fine adjustments. You can rotate it 360° to frame your target perfectly.

ZWO fully multi-coated every lens for maximum light transmission. They flocked the tube interior to block stray light. They machined the tube from solid aluminium and built the focuser from brass. The result? A rock-solid, high-performance astrograph made to last.
