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 Askar 71F adopts a quadruplet air-spaced APO lens design, including one piece of ED glass， which can effectively reduce chromatic aberration.

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

After the huge success of the 80PHQ, 107PHQ, and 130PHQ telescopes, Askar launched now their small brother, the 65PHQ flatfield astrograph.

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.

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

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 V is the latest innovation from Sharpstar to answer their customers’ needs. It doesn't just come with two objective lenses (60mm and 80mm), it also includes three accessories (a reducer, a flattener and extender).

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

The Askar 140APO is an ED APO OTA with 140mm aperture, 980mm focal length and f/7 native focal ratio.

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
