Product description

Anyone looking for a good starter telescope should consider the AC 80/900 as one of the favourite choices. The R-80 has 77% more light-gathering power than a standard 60mm beginner scope. The brighter images make it easier to detect subtle details and increases the joy during observations. This telescope will outperform those standard scopes without burdening the observer with a large additional weight. The craters of the moon will look magnificent in the Messier R-80, and even the rings of Saturn can be seen from a distance of 1.4 billion km!

The EQ-3: This equatorial mount provides the opportunity to precisely align scopes with Polaris. The correct pole height or geographical latitude can be set for each observation site. Thanks to fine movements along the right ascension and declination axes, objects can be precisely located, followed and kept within the visual field. A counterweight precisely balances the telescope.
The EQ-3 mount provides a solid base for most smaller and medium-sized scopes and is very well suited to spacewalks through the night sky. The tripod is extendible and a shelf provides space for eyepieces and other accessories.

It not only matters which telescope you buy but also where you buy it. Our additional services:

  • We are a leading telescope dealer and know the devices we sell. Our customer service team will gladly help you after your purchase if you have problems with assembly or operation.
  • We provide a copy of the 80-page "Telescope ABC" beginners handbook with every telescope.
