Product details

It is very easy to use, but it has an extremely stable mount that most equatorial mounts would envy. You simply turn the telescope by hand to where you want it and look - it doesn't get any easier than that. Typically, a Newtonian reflector of the classic optical design is mounted on the mount. This type of telescope is also not expensive. They are cheaper than other types of telescopes because the production technology is relatively simple, but that does not mean lower quality in any way. If you want to hunt for deep-sky objects, this telescope is an excellent choice, and under good weather conditions, you can also see the smallest details of the planets thanks to the large aperture. The most important optical element in telescopes of this system is the primary mirror. The brightness and quality of the image depend on it. This telescope is equipped with a high-quality parabolic mirror, ensuring that the image is sharp enough across the entire field of view.

The offer refers only to the Dobsonian base / mount.
The optical tube assembly (telescope tube) is not part of the delivery and is not included with this item.
