Product description

The 80 mm guide scope from TS Optics is a fast guiding solution for astrophotographers who are looking for a compact guide scope with a large aperture. With this, you will never again have a problem finding a suitable guide star. The guide scope fits into standard finder holders - there are no adaptation problems.

The TSL80D is also a powerful finder. The 80 mm aperture shows hundreds of deep sky objects, and you can clearly see the difference between a globular cluster and a star in the eyepiece.

The telescope is a powerful large-field refractor. The TSL80D can also be used as a "video finder", e.g. in remote observatories.

The 1.25" helical focuser allows for precise focusing. The camera or eyepiece does not rotate during focusing. Once you have achieved the optimum sharpness, simply fix the focuser position with the knurled screw. This ensures that the focus position is maintained. The focuser has a combined 1.25" T2 connection on the eyepiece or camera side. You can connect reticle eyepieces or guiding cameras directly.

Suitable for all standard viewfinder shoes from Vixen, Celestron, TS Optics, Skywatcher and other brands.

This is VERY fine piece of astrophotography gear. Although it is achromat if you use quality eyepiece chromatic aberration will not be issue you will pay attention on. Above all it is very sharp and bright.
The blue ring behind helical focuser also serves as rotator if you need it, I was quite surprised with that detail.
I tried Baader Hyperion 13mm eyepiece and GSO Super Plossl 32mm. Difference in image quality is obvious means eyepiece is very important if you intend to observe. Even so, in both cases I got very sharp image which means and confirms that the guider is optically excellent ( as an achromat ofc ) and will not fail no matter what you use it for! All in all it looks, feels and acts great. I am very happy with it, even more with price performance ratio. So far I found no single flaw, therefore I give it highest possible recommendation!!
