The stunning new William Optics Gran Turismo GTF 81 Apo is the new jewel of the apochromatic refractor world. From the pristine white finish on the CNC tube to the elegant dark red trim, this beauty has more than just good looks. This new GTF81 features a 3-element objective using high-quality FPL-53 extra-low dispersion glass that reduces any secondary spectrum to an unbelievable degree. But what makes this scope truly unique is the second optical component - a 2-element built-in ED field flattener that corrects the field, providing an excellent flat field over a 40mm image circle.
