    Amateur astronomers will appreciate the picturesque bright and clear views of planets, the Moon, galaxies and nebulae, that are true to its colour. Hobbyists will appreciate the versatility of its viewing options - transitioning from birdwatching and boatwatching from the patio during the day to observing the stars at night. With FPL-53 glass, this refractor telescope will have high resolution and superior contrast compared to any standard refractor telescope. With the FPL-53 glass, the ED glass reduces colour fringing and discoloration to almost zero. This is an astronomer's dream!

    For a wider field of view and field correction, add a saxon 0.85x Focal Reducer for ED120 to reduce your f-ratio from F7.5 to F/6.38. 

    Choose your own set up with many mount options. Pair it with a HEQ5 Pro Mount for a computerised user-friendly astronomical ensemble or a Saxon AZ5 Mount for fast and slow controls, perfect for landviewing.
