Аннотация:Within the framework of the development of the instrumental base of INASAN a technical assignment for the manufacture of a focal reducer was issued in 2020 in order to increase the functionality of Zeiss-1000 in Simeiz. The task included the requirement to increase the field of view to 0.8 ◦ when using serial CCD cameras about 80mm in diagonal to ensure maximum possible coverage of the celestial sphere without loss of images quality. The calculation of the optimal optical scheme was carried out with ZEMAX software and a focus reducer was manufactured on the basis of the optical production of the SAI MGU. The article presents the results of a study of a new reducer with CCD camera FLI PL1608.
