The Levenhuk Blitz 76 PLUS Newtonian reflector is installed on an equatorial mount. This model is ideal for the beginner user who is interested in exploring deep-sky objects.

As the telescope's kit includes all of the necessary accessories, it can be great as a gift.
The reflector features a spherical primary mirror. The lenses are made of glass with an anti-reflective coating.
