These telescopes are carefully
designed for the more serious astronomer and terrestrial observer
and feature exquisite optics and precision, heavy duty mounts.
The optics
are made to exacting standards, with high quality materials
to ensure top performance. You'll find that astronomical viewing
is a delight with these large, powerful 4" telescopes.
They offer a 63% increase in image brightness over 80mm models.
The altazimuth mount is easy to use and has slow motion controls
on both the R.A. and DEC. axes. These controls are on flexible
cables, to allow for quick and easy pointing and tracking.
When used for astronomical viewing, this telescope yields
breathtaking views of the moon, Saturn with its ring structure,
Jupiter and its belts, and hundreds of deep-sky objects including:
galaxies, nebulae and star clusters. Add an optional solar
filter and you can observe activity on the sun. For terrestrial
use, you can enjoy views from your own backyard or take your
telescope out in the field to enjoy the natural environment,
up close.
