A window to the universe: Achromatic optics
The heart of this telescope is its high-quality achromatic optics. Two lenses work together to provide you with a sharp and clear image with minimal colour aberrations. For you, this means that planets such as Jupiter and Saturn reveal their first details, such as cloud bands or the famous rings. The Moon becomes a landscape of craters, grooves and mountains that you can explore for hours. Bright deep-sky objects such as the Orion Nebula or the Andromeda Galaxy also become visible.
Sharpness is key: Crayford focuser
Many entry-level telescopes are equipped with simple rack-and-pinion focusers. These often wobble and make focusing a test of patience. But this telescope puts an end to that: it has a Crayford focuser. You will hardly find this feature in any other entry-level telescope series, as it was originally intended for advanced amateur astronomers. A fusion of telescopes into a new type: Horizon! But what can this Crayford focuser do? Because it runs on ball bearings, you can focus the object smoothly and without play – even at very high magnifications. You can now find the perfect sharpness immediately and right from the start.
More than just stars: also ideal for nature observation
With the included amici prism, your telescope becomes a powerful spotting scope for observing the Earth. Unlike with standard astronomical telescopes, you see an upright and non-inverted image. This allows you to observe birds in trees, shy wildlife at the edge of the forest or distant mountain peaks during the day. This makes the telescope a versatile companion for anyone who wants to discover the world: day and night.
The intuitive mount for quick and sharp observations day and night
A bird sitting in the sun, a deer grazing at the edge of the forest, or the moon in the daytime sky? There are many situations in which you might want to point a telescope at an object spontaneously. That's exactly what the Omegon AZ Bellavista mount is for. It works as easily as a good photo tripods, but is as stable and accurate as a mount for observation of the stars. A perfect choice for anyone who loves quick observations.
Advantages at a glance:
- Ready in a flash: simply place the telescope on or attach it to the L-rail and get started. It is very easy to use and immediately understandable.
- Smooth movement: Precise gears on both axes move the telescope smoothly and without jerking. This allows you to navigate to any target and track it effortlessly.
- For nature and stars: Observe animals at the edge of the forest or objects in the sky.
- Stable: The sturdy stainless steel tripod ensures a steady image. This allows you to see every detail, even at high magnifications.
- Universal mounting: The mounting fits many telescopes. You can mount your telescope quickly and securely.
Easy to use: Up, down, left and right
No complicated alignment with the North Star is necessary. With the AZ Bellavista mount, you can easily move your telescope left, right, up and down. It works just like a good camera tripod. This makes the mount ideal for quick, spontaneous observation. Whether you are looking at the moon, planets or objects on Earth, you will find your target in a matter of seconds.
Precision you can feel: smooth fine movement
A simple photo tripod does not move as precisely. The Bellavista has fine gears in both axes. You control these via two rotary handles. This allows you to keep your target exactly in the centre, even at high magnification. These smooth and precise movements make all the difference and ensure relaxed observation.
A steel foundation: robust tripod
A good mount needs a stable tripod. That's why the Bellavista AZ has a very robust stainless steel tripod. It ensures a steady image, even in windy conditions or when touched. The practical accessory tray simply clicks into place. It keeps your eyepieces and other items ready to hand. This foundation ensures that you get the most out of your telescope's performance.
Omegon Accessory Box: What good is the best telescope without the right accessories?
With the Omegon accessory box, you get a coordinated set of equipment that makes getting started as easy as possible. Instead of laboriously searching for individual eyepieces and adaptors, you get everything you need for your first observations and even your first moon photos. And all in a quality that exceeds the standard. What do you need to get started? Something that will allow you to make impressive observations right away. This includes two eyepieces for low and medium magnifications. Sometimes you want to get even closer to the action. That's exactly what the included 2x barlow lens is for. It simply plugs between the eyepiece and the telescope and doubles the magnification of the respective eyepiece. An LED finder is extremely important for quickly searching for and finding objects. A red glowing dot in the darkness shows you exactly where to look. You will soon realise that this inconspicuous component is just as important as your telescope. And with the extension tube, you can always find the right focus level.
Your smartphone becomes an astro camera
Perhaps the most exciting part of the accessory set is the smartphone adapter. It allows you to attach your own mobile phone directly to the eyepiece and take photos of what you are observing. Capture the cratered landscapes of the Moon or photograph Jupiter and its moons. The included Bluetooth remote shutter release ensures blur-free images. Share your fascination with the starry sky with your family and friends. It couldn't be easier.
