... for a dielectric zenith mirror with 99% reflection?

99% reflection and long life

Thanks to dielectric (non-metallic) coating, the Castell zenith mirror not only has a high reflectance of 99%, but also a long service life. The long service life is achieved because the non-metallic dielectric surface reacts much less with the acids and bases in the air than an aluminum coating with a quartz protective layer.

Ring clamping instead of fixing screws

The 50.8mm socket of the diagonal itself, as well as the 31.7mm reduction have ring clamps with large knurled screws.


Test: checking the reflection

Test procedure: Take a test photos with a camera through the diagonal (ISO200, manual mode), then measure the brightness value in Photoshop using a histogram.
This test serves as an estimate of the zenith reflection. The following models were tested:

  • LACERTA (nominal value:99%)
    Measured: Luminance = 98.9% Green / Visual = 99.2%
    (Very high reflectivity in the entire RGB range, but also the most expensive zenith mirror in this test series. It is identical to other well-known models)
  • SkyWatcher (nominal value:99%)
    Measured: Luminance = 96.1% Green / Visual = 95.3%
    (evenly in the entire RGB range, but shows less reflectivity than advertised both in luminance and in green / visual)
  • Castell (nominal value:99%)
    (Visually, it reaches almost 99%; in the blue area, however, a little less reflectivity and therefore a slightly yellow tinge; but is advantageous for Fraunhofer refractors with blue halos)
    Measured: Luminance = 95.3% Green / Visual = 98.2%
  • SkyWatcher (nominal value:91%)
    Measured: Luminance = 90.3% Green / Visual = 92.4%
    (As advertised, a good zenith mirror without higher reflectivity criteria. The image is, however, much darker than in the other three zenith mirrors)

TELESCOPIC EVENING

Together we will explore the world of telescopes and start from “zero” for beginners. We show the basics of how a telescope actually works, what differences there are and combine this with hands-on practice.
Everyone is welcome to bring their own instrument and get to know it better with our telescope experts, including Gerhard Rehak.
