The ideal telescope to get started in amateur astronomy. A fantastic gift for both children and adults with an excellent relationship between price and potential.

It is possible to assemble the instrument quickly, simply and without tools, according to the motto: position, insert the eyepiece and observe!

The N 76/700 optical system:

The range of beginner reflector telescopes starts with a 76mm aperture. The Jupiter system with its four large Galilean satellites or the ring of Saturn can be observed just like countless lunar craters . The observer can even go on astronomical "excursions" to the Andromeda Galaxy or the Orion Nebula or other astronomical objects. Enter the world of the stars and enjoy completely different experiences that you have only observed in images. With its objective aperture of 76mm , the telescope has a potential 118 times larger than the human eye. The spherical mirror has a focal length of 700mm , the combination of mirror diameter and focal length provides high quality representations. The tube offers an eyepiece telescope that can be combined with all modern eyepieces.

In combination with a reversing lens you can even point at terrestrial objects and observe them.

The advantages at sight:

  • Compact reflector telescope
  • Quick assembly
  • Also suitable for children
  • Exceeds the light potential of a 70mm telescope by approximately 18%

Complete supply:

  • Optical viewfinder, 5x24mm
  • SR 4mm eyepieces, H 20mm, H 12.5 mm (1.25")
  • Barlow lens, 2x (1.25")
  • Reversal lens (1.25")

The AZ-1 mount:

It is a mount highly appreciated by astronomical beginners, as it stands out for its easy handling. The entire telescope can be moved without problems both altazimuthally and with respect to altitude. For you as a beginner, this has the advantage that you do not have to engage in complicated pre-adjustment of the telescope. You position your telescope very quickly and easily: Position tripod and mount, mount the telescope and go! You can fix the adjustment of both axes, this way found terrestrial objects stay in the image. In the vertical axis you can move the tube by fine adjustment. The mount is mounted on a variable height aluminum tripod.

We supply:


  • Altazimuthal mount AZ-1
  • Robust aluminum tripod (variable height between 71cm and 121cm)
  • Slide
  • Where you buy your telescope is almost as important as the telescope itself.
