AC 102/660 AZ-3 Telescope

Optics 102/660 - compact telescope with light absorption
With an aperture of 102 mm, not only the Moon and planets can be seen, but also numerous Deep-Sky objects. Admire young star clusters, such as the Pleiades, or other large objects such as galactic nebulae. With a focal length of just 660 mm, it is capable of offering especially wide fields of view. It is the ideal telescope to embark on a stellar journey or let yourself be enveloped by the magic of the sky. If you want to delight in a particular object, you can quickly change eyepieces and enjoy a magnification factor of up to 200x. With an aperture of 102 mm, you will also be able to take full advantage of the atmospheric resolution.

Comet finder skills:
It's just dark, the stars are shining in the sky and you have a comet in the front line. You observe it with your 102/660 telescope and discover the coma and its majestic tail. That's what this telescope is good for, looking for comets. Before you a traveler from unknown areas of the solar system. Feel like a comet researcher and be infected by their grace.

Omegon AZ-3 mount - Precision thanks to slow travel on both axes
It is an altazimuth mount with slow movement in both axes. With the AZ-3 mount it is easy to keep any astronomical or terrestrial object in the field of view. Simply move the control panel in the desired direction while viewing any object for the mount to track it. Even while viewing at high magnification factors! The observer only has to worry about enjoying himself while the mount intuitively tracks.

It has a thick central screw to choose between the following observation modes: terrestrial horizontal or vertical astronomical. Allows you to locate any observation point. The AZ-3 mount can be rotated 360º to achieve any angle with the telescope.
