The perfect Astrograph you've probably never heard of - Deep-Sky Tour with the ASA10N

Many amateur astronomers have probably never heard of the company ASA - Astrosystems Austria. This is because they now only build professional telescopes. But there was a glorious time when this small Austrian company built one of the best Newtonian Astrographs for amateur astrophotography. A whole line-up of Astrographs from 8 to 16", equipped with a fast premium f3.8 mirror and uncompromising mechanics that made it possible to take perfectly sharp deep-sky photos with full-frame cameras or larger. Unfortunately, these telescopes were almost unaffordable even back then - probably the reason why these jewels of amateur optics are no longer available. Many years later, Chinese telescope manufacturers copied the ASA Astrographs - unfortunately with poor optical quality - to my great disappointment... By good luck I got a used original 10" ASA Astrograph, the ASA10N f3.8, which I have been using successfully ever since. Last year I had the opportunity to take the ASA together with my 10micron mount to the French Alps. The Col de Restefond is one of the darkest and most remote places in Europe where you can do astrophotography, one of the last patches of wilderness in light-polluted Europe. In this short video I take you on an Astro-tour in the Alps with the ASA10N astrograph. Enjoy!
