This compact, large-aperture refractor telescope is perfect for deep-sky observing pursuits. Its combination of a 120mm (4.7") aperture multi-coated achromatic lens assembly and modest 600mm focal length provide breathtaking wide-field views. With an optional 25mm Plossl eyepiece (sold separately), this compact telescope serves up a sprawling 2.1-degree swath of sky! The telescope's fast f/5.0 optical system also makes it an excellent choice for astrophotography. The 26"-long optical tube is well baffled to ensure good contrast. Its cast-metal, 2" rack-and-pinion focuser accommodates either a 2" or 1.25" diagonal, so you can use 1.25" or big 2" eyepieces. The optical tube color is a classy gunmetal gray metallic. A mounting base is molded into the focuser casting to accept an optional Orion finder scope or reflex sight. Sold as optical tube assembly only without accessories. Includes objective lens cap. Weighs 8.6 lbs. One-year limited warranty.
