New! Revelation enhanced silver 99%+ reflectivity dielectric coating 2" full CNC engineered mirror star diagonal for SCTs.

This stunning new 2" mirror diagonal features high-performance state-of-the-art glass-work: the mirror is precision ground to a flatness of 1/10th wave (minimum) and features dielectric 6-layer enhanced silver coatings with over-coating protection for a light efficiency of over 99% reflectivity across the entire visual spectrum.

The diagonal has truly superb high-precision CNC engineered metalwork and this beautiful piece of equipment looks just as good as it functions! The low-profile SCT fitting is designed to allow the diagonal to pass through the fork arms of most commercial SCTs. The engineering and design is outstanding - the rigid aluminium body and attachment fittings are CNC milled and lathe turned to strict tolerances from solid stock throughout - the high quality gloss anodised finish will give a lifetime of handsome service.

Features:

Superior 1/10 wave glass-work with better than 99% reflectivity with state-of-the-art enhanced silver 6 layer dielectric mirror coatings.

Rigid, high-performance metalwork CNC engineered from solid stock.

Brass compression ring for 2" eyepiece holding.

Low-profile SCT visual-back fitting.

Included: ultra low-profile (zero length addition) 1.25" to 2" eyepiece adaptor with brass compression ring - threaded for filters.

Safety: the eyepiece holder has a safety step inside to protect mirror from collisions with long barrels on Barlows and eyepieces.

Yet another great feature of this diagonal is that you can attach 2" filters internally. By simply unscrewing the eyepiece holder from the top of the diagonal body a filter can be screwed in to position at the bottom of the holder - reattach the eyepiece holder and the diagonal now has a built-in filter. This is a very useful feature if you wish to use a ND or deep sky filter with every eyepiece.

And the venerable competition?

Compare this Revelation high-performance 2" diagonal carefully with competitor offerings - in particular to the Williams Optics and the various look-a-likes offered by our competitors. The Revelation 2" 2MD-DM diagonal has a body fully CNC milled from a solid block of aircraft quality aluminium. The WO and clones are made from several components screwed together, nicely done - but not solid. Check out the 1.25" adaptors supplied with the WO and clones - nicely done to be sure, very shiny, but at least 5mm thicker than they need to be - and that's bad news for anyone with limited in-focus movement. The adaptor supplied with our new Revelation 2" CNC diagonals is ultra low-profile being recessed to add nothing to the length of the diagonal when the adaptor is inserted. These are small points, certainly - but they matter, it is, after all, the small details that Revelation gets right time after time that makes the whole Revelation accessory range one of the best in the world.

So what's so great about the new Revelation CNC 2" diagonals?

Well I have to admit to being a bit of a soft touch for great looking kit! And these Revelation high performance 2" diagonals really hit the spot! Every part of these diagonals has been beautifully designed. The whole unit just feels superb in the hand - it looks as though every angle on the metalwork has been thought about and done to perfection. Quite simply these are the best diagonals I've ever looked through!
