Description

Would you like to go on a night walk and experience something out of this world? With a lens aperture of 60mm this 60/700 refractor telescope already collects about 30 percent more light than a telescope with 50mm aperture. The 60/700 already allows for higher magnifications – ideal to investigate in details like lunar craters. An additional finder scope mounted on the telescope makes it easier to locate objects in the sky. With the erecting eyepiece even during the day many exciting things in the surrounding can be observed. Due to the height adjustable tripod, the telescope can be brought to the right height for small or tall observers. The supplied diagonal mirror ensures comfortable viewing.

Field of Application:

At night the moon and planets like Saturn and Jupiter may be explored. But also impressive sparkling star clusters like the Pleiades impress young and old stargazers. With the included erecting prism it is possible to get an unreversed, upright image, for example, for observation of nature during the day.

Special features:

Ultra light: the complete instrument with tripod weighs less than 2kg! Thus, it can also be set up by young researchers themselves, at any time on the balcony or in the garden.

The kit includes:

  • Refractor telescope 60/700
  • Alt-azimuth mount (left/right and up/down)
  • Continuously height adjustable aluminium tripod
  • 5x24 finder scope
  • 90° diagonal mirror
  • Three eyepieces: 4mm (175x magnification), 12.5mm (56x magnification) and 20mm (35x magnification)
  • 1.5x errecting lens for laterally correct and upright image
  • Pocket compass
  • Hard carrying case
  • User manual
