The Levenhuk Blitz 76 BASE telescope is a Newtonian reflector with a spherical main mirror. This is an entry-level model, but it allows you to observe many deep-sky and outer space objects. It can study the Moon, Earth-like planets and binary stars, as well as large globular and open clusters. Almost all the objects in the Messier catalog can be observed, but without a high degree of detail.
The telescope's optics are made of glass with anti-reflective coating. As a result, the images obtained are sharp and clear. You can observe with good clarity up to a magnification of 152x. The three eyepieces of different focal lengths and the 2x Barlow lens included in the kit allow you to work with a large number of magnification factors.
With the azimuth fork mount, using the telescope is as easy as using a spotting scope. To direct the telescope towards the selected object, simply turn the optical tube in the desired direction: left, right, up or down. The mount has a microscrew on the vertical axis, which allows you to orient the telescope precisely and fluidly. The height-adjustable aluminum tripod has an accessory tray.
