Product description

Seben's 900-76 reflector telescope provides due to its 900mm focal length fantastic image sharpness and contrast and remains unbeaten in this price category. In combination with the enormous (up to 450-times) magnification, you receive sensational high resolution, which marks the borderline to professional observing.

Explore new worlds – in the farthest corners of the universe!

The possible magnifications of 45x, 77x, 90x, 144x, 150x, 225x, 300x and even 450x enable most impressive observations of the starlit night sky. The precisely ground primary mirror plays a significant role for judging this high performance observation device. It is characterized by its especially accurate coated mirror surface. As an exclusive quality indication this mirror represents the precise production of all parts of this telescope. Because of its up-to-date-construction, and in combination with its modern, high performance 1.25” (31.7mm) accessory sockets, you are able to equip Seben's 900-76 telescope with nearly every accessory available. It is even possible to extend Seben's 900-76 telescope for the popular pastime of Astrophotography!

The following 31.7mm (1.25“) extra accessories are all part of the “Big-Pack“. Whereas you usually have to spend a lot of extra money for them with other manufacturers, there is not a penny extra to be paid. The added 31.7mm (1.25“) Moon Filter reduces the Moon's glare. This is produced by reflected sunlight and normally washes out most of the craters and other surface details from view. The additionally supplied 31.7mm (1.25“) Barlow Lens enables a doubling of the magnification of the inserted eyepiece. The 31.7mm (1.25“) 1,5x Erecting Eyepiece produces an upright and side correct image. This is of particular importance for terrestrial viewing, because usually the image would appear upside down in an astronomical telescope. Because of its lower power the 5x24 Finder Scope makes it easier to locate celestial objects. With the provided 31.7mm (1.25“) eyepieces (20mm, 12.5mm, 6mm and 4mm) the following magnifications can be achieved without further accessories having to be bought expensively: 45x, 77x, 90x, 144x, 150x, 225x, 300x und 450x. The extremely stable, vertically adjustable Tripod enables best observation conditions, especially if you want to shift from celestial to terrestrial viewing or vice versa.

Furthermore we want to accentuate the equatorial mount of the telescope, which enables easy tracking of celestial objects as they move across the night sky. Contrary to a simply two-axis altazimuth mount which can only be moved in altitude, up and down, or azimuth, side to side, as separate motions, an equatorial mount also has a rotational axis parallel to the Earth's axis of rotation. The equatorial axis (the right ascension) of an equatorial mount is paired with a second perpendicular axis of motion (known as the declination).

Our expert comment:

Compare: A similar telescope, with a larger aperture, which is better value for money is the Omegon N 114/900 EQ-1. You also benefit from a comprehensive accessory kit for getting you started in astronomy.

Seben telescopes are aimed completely at selling in the lower price bracket, which, in our opinion, is unfortunately clearly reflected in their quality. On the plus side however, there is a very wide range of accessories available, but these also tend to be of the most basic sort which can be produced.

We therefore recommend beginners consider carefully as to whether they should perhaps invest a little more and buy equipment that they can enjoy using somewhat longer.
