AC 70/700 EQ Neo: Introduction to classical astronomy with precise tracking + smartphone adapter
Observe the universe like a real astronomer! This kit combines a highly effective AC 70/700 refractor telescope with the EQ Neo parallactic mount. This allows you to precisely track the movement of the stars and compensate for the Earth's rotation with a single control knob. Ideal for anyone who wants to immerse themselves in astronomical observation from day one.

Advantages at a glance:

  • Easy to get started: set up your telescope in just a few minutes and start your first observations right away.
  • Sharp, high-contrast images: the high-quality optical glass objective allows you to see the details of the Moon and planets.
  • Precise focus adjustment: the Crayford focuser allows you to focus precisely and smoothly, a feature unique among beginner telescopes of this size.
  • Lightweight and easy to transport: take your telescope to your favorite locations and observe the stars even better.
  • Everything you need to get started: a complete set including an LED finderscope, Plössl dual-eyepiece, Amici prism, Barlow lens, extension tube, smartphone adapter, and Bluetooth shutter control. So you can start your adventure right away!

A window to the universe: achromatic optics
At the heart of this telescope is its high-quality achromatic optics. Two lenses work together to provide a sharp, clear image with minimal chromatic aberration. This means you can see details on planets such as Jupiter and Saturn, including cloud bands and the famous rings. The Moon becomes a landscape of craters, rilles, and mountains that you can explore for hours. You can also observe bright deep-sky objects, such as the Orion Nebula and the Andromeda Galaxy.

Sharpness is what matters: Crayford focusers
Many beginner telescopes are equipped with simple rack-and-pinion focusers. These are often wobbly and turn focusing into a test of patience. This telescope puts an end to that: it features a Crayford focuser. This equipment is rarely found on any other series of beginner telescopes, as it was originally designed for advanced amateur astronomers. A fusion of telescopes into a new kind: Horizon! But what can this Crayford focuser do? Operating with ball bearings, it focuses the object with exceptional smoothness and without play, even at very high magnifications. In addition, the locking screw allows you to lock the focus at any time if you want to prevent it from shifting out of position. You will find perfect sharpness immediately and from the very beginning.

More than just stars: also ideal for nature observation
With the included Amici prism, your telescope becomes a powerful spotting scope for terrestrial observation. Unlike standard astronomical telescopes, you will see an upright image without lateral inversion. This allows you to observe birds in the trees, shy wildlife at the edge of the forest, or distant mountain peaks during the day. This makes the telescope a versatile companion for anyone who wants to discover the world: both day and night.

EQ Neo: the lightweight parallactic mount ideal for getting started in astronomy
A good mount is the foundation of any satisfactory astronomical observation. The Omegon EQ Neo has been specially designed for beginners who value stability and precise tracking from the very beginning. Unlike alt-azimuth mounts, which require you to move the telescope on two axes at once, this parallactic mount allows you to follow the stars with a single movement. This makes observation more relaxed, satisfying, and a true pleasure.

Advantages at a glance:

  • Easy tracking: follow the stars with a single control knob and keep celestial objects in the eyepieces effortlessly.
  • Stability: the sturdy stainless steel tripod ensures secure support with minimal vibration and a sharp image.
  • Precise movement: thanks to the worm gear on both axes, you can easily keep celestial objects in the field of view.
  • Universal compatibility: thanks to the Vixen-style prism clamp, you can securely and quickly mount a wide variety of telescope tubes.
  • Lightweight and easy to transport: the mount quickly detaches and can be conveniently carried to your favorite observation location.
  • Everything at hand: the practical accessory tray provides space for your eyepieces, filters, and star charts.

The secret of the parallactic mount
Our Earth rotates, and that is precisely what makes observing the stars such a challenge. Celestial objects move slowly but steadily across the sky. A parallactic mount like the EQ Neo compensates for this Earth rotation in an ingeniously simple way. Once aligned with Polaris, you only need to rotate your telescope around a single axis (the right ascension axis) to keep any object in the field of view. This is not only more convenient but also an essential requirement for astrophotography with longer exposure times.

Stability that pays off: the stainless steel tripod

What good is the best optics if the image moves with every touch? The EQ Neo rests on a stable, height-adjustable tripod made of stainless steel. It offers noticeably superior rigidity compared to the often unstable aluminum tripods that are usually included in other beginner kits. The result is a sharper image and a more relaxed observation experience. The rubber feet ensure a secure grip on any surface and can be removed for use on uneven terrain, allowing the spikes underneath to be used.

Precision in the details: the worm gear

Another advantage of the EQ Neo is its improved gearing. Instead of a simple, limited adjustment range, it uses an enclosed worm gear system. Not only is it protected against dust and moisture, but it also allows for unlimited, precise fine movement on the declination axis. Together with the flexible axes for manual fine adjustment, centering an object exactly in the eyepieces becomes child's play.

Omegon accessory box: What good is the best telescope without the right accessories?
With the Omegon accessory box, you will get a coordinated set of equipment that makes your first steps as easy as possible. Instead of having to laboriously search for individual eyepieces and adapters, you will find everything you need here for your first observations and even your first photos of the Moon. And all of it with quality superior to standard. What do you need to get started? Something that allows you to make impressive observations right away. This includes two eyepieces for low and medium magnifications. Sometimes you want to get even closer to the action. That is what the included 2x Barlow lens is for. Simply place it between the eyepiece and the telescope, and it doubles the magnification of the corresponding eyepiece. An LED finderscope is very important for quickly searching for and finding objects. A bright red dot in the darkness shows you exactly the way. Soon you will realize that this discreet component is just as important as your telescope. And with the extension tube, you can always reach the correct focal plane.

Your smartphone becomes an astronomical camera
Perhaps the most exciting part of the accessory set is the smartphone adapter. With it, you can attach your own mobile phone directly to the eyepiece and take photos of what you are observing. Capture the cratered landscapes of the Moon or photograph Jupiter with its moons. The included Bluetooth shutter control ensures vibration-free images. Share your fascination with the starry sky with your family and friends. It couldn't be easier.

⚠️ NOTAS DE ADVERTENCIA

GAFAS PARA LA OBSERVACIÓN DE ECLIPSE

  • INSTRUCCIONES: Revise antes de cada uso. No utilice ni deseche si está dañado, rasgado, perforado o separado de alguna manera del marco. No lo use con otros dispositivos ópticos. No es un juguete. Los niños deben usarlo solo bajo la supervisión de un adulto. Limítese a 3 minutos de uso continuo, con interrupciones durante varias horas. No se mueva mientras usa este producto, no conduzca un vehículo ni opere maquinaria. No lo use si tiene un ojo enfermo o después de una operación ocular.
  • ADVERTENCIA: Nunca mire directamente al sol sin protección ocular especial. Siempre use gafas de eclipse al observar el eclipse solar, especialmente si una parte del sol es visible. Mirar directamente al sol puede causar daños permanentes si no se toman las precauciones adecuadas. Se debe usar protección ocular adecuada, diseñada específicamente para la observación solar, para evitar que los rayos dañinos del sol lleguen a los ojos. Deséchelo después de 3 años y no lo utilice después de ese tiempo.

OBSERVACIÓN SOLAR CON TELESCOPIO

  • Nunca mire al sol a través de un ocular/telescopio sin un filtro de protección verificado. Un filtro lunar nunca puede usarse para la observación solar. El filtro lunar solo es adecuado para la observación de la luna. El filtro solar debe montarse en la apertura del telescopio, no en el ocular. De lo contrario, el rayo de luz concentrado por la óptica destruirá inmediatamente la película del filtro, lo que provocará daños oculares graves e incluso ceguera total.
  • Revise el filtro solar antes de cada observación solar y asegúrese de que no esté dañado. Manténgalo frente a una fuente de luz intensa para poder detectar posibles grietas y/o agujeros. No use el telescopio para la observación solar, incluso si el filtro solar está solo ligeramente dañado. En este caso, comuníquese con el fabricante para obtener las piezas de repuesto correspondientes.
  • Siempre use el filtro solar cuando observe el sol. Asegúrese de que este filtro esté colocado correctamente en el telescopio según las instrucciones. El uso del filtro solar está destinado únicamente para su uso con este telescopio.
  • Revise el ajuste del filtro solar antes de cada observación solar. Si se suelta accidentalmente de la abertura del objetivo, esto puede causar daños oculares inmediatos y permanentes, e incluso ceguera.
  • Si el filtro solar no puede montarse de manera suficientemente firme en el tubo, mejore el ajuste colocando varias tiras de fieltro autoadhesivas o similares entre el filtro solar y la abertura del objetivo. Nunca use el filtro solar si no puede colocarse correctamente en el telescopio. En tal caso, siempre contacte primero con nuestro servicio al cliente.
  • Tenga mucho cuidado al observar el sol. Incluso una mirada corta a través de la óptica sin protección puede causar daños oculares graves e incluso ceguera total.
  • Los niños, incluso con el filtro montado correctamente, no deben mirar al sol a través del telescopio. Nunca deje a los niños sin supervisión.
  • Nunca deje la óptica sin supervisión. Los niños y los adultos inexpertos podrían dirigir el telescopio hacia el sol sin las precauciones adecuadas y perder la vista.
  • No realice observaciones solares sin la consulta previa de un médico después de una operación ocular o cualquier otra enfermedad ocular.
  • Las ondas/pliegues en la película son normales y no constituyen un defecto del producto.
  • No exponga el dispositivo a altas temperaturas.
