Ideal for your solar eclipse trip: the complete telescope set for solar eclipses
A solar eclipse is a good reason to travel. It is probably the most exciting spectacle that the sky has to offer. The Omegon BackPack AZ telescope is a great travel companion. It consists of the optics, a tripod, a solar filter and a matching backpack. It is so compact that it fits into any luggage and offers you a magnificent view of the solar eclipse.

The advantages at a glance:

  • Lightweight and compact telescope for solar eclipse tourists
  • Certified (CE) solar filter for maximum safety during observation
  • Vixen-style rail for mounting on mounts and ¼" photo thread for photo tripods
  • Complete set with accessories

Telescope lens with 70 mm aperture
The 70/400 mm tube is compact and particularly lightweight. This means you can travel light to your chosen observation spot. The objective consists of two lenses and provides you with a clear and sharp image of the sun. Enjoy the eclipse in its full size. It is at least as impressive as with the naked eye.

Tripods & mounts
The aluminium photo tripod always finds the right place: on a table, a rock ledge or, classically, on the ground. You can adjust it individually using the three focusers: from small to very large. A 1/4" photo screw secures the optical tube. The azimuth handle allows you to point the telescope in any direction.

Solar filters included
The included solar filter fits exactly onto the dew shield of the tube. Simply attach it and you can look at the sun through the telescope.

100,000 times protection for your eyes
The solar filter film offers you a 100% safe view of the sun. Most of the sunlight is blocked and less than 0.001% reaches the telescope.

The solar filter provides you with a clear and homogeneous image of the sun. This allows you to follow and enjoy the entire partial phase of the solar eclipse.

Caution: Never look at the sun without a solar filter. Before solar observation, first place the solar filter on the lens. Never leave children unattended; they should only observe with an adult.

Customer reviews

This is very good telescope.

This is very good telescope. The tripod is stable and the telescope itself is not havy so it stand very well on the tripod. The accessory that come with the telescope are also good. The price quality ratio is very good, I highly recommend this telescope. May be you need to add one barlow lens to have more magnification due to the short focus length of the telescope (400mm), but a good barlow lens is not expensive.

Very good for begginers!
