Carson SkySeeker Telescope 40-100x60 mm
A refracting telescope for beginners and intermediate astronomy enthusiasts, offering intuitive operation, durable construction, and a wide range of magnifications. It is ideal for both home and field use.
focal length 800 mm, two Huygens eyepieces
The 60 mm diameter lens and 800 mm focal length enable clear, detailed images in a magnification range from 40x to 100x. The set includes two Huygens eyepieces:
- H20 mm – 40x magnification
- H8 mm – 100x magnification
The lenses are coated with an anti-reflective coating to improve light transmission and reduce optical distortion. The resolving power of 2.3“ (Rayleigh) and 1.9” (Dawes) allows you to see details on the surface of the Moon and observe planets. The limiting magnitude is 16.4 mag.
Easy location of objects
The 5x24 mm optical sight makes it easy to quickly locate celestial bodies, which will be particularly appreciated by those taking their first steps in astronomy.
Stable and adjustable base
The set includes an aluminum tripod with adjustable height from 70 cm to 110 cm, ensuring stability and comfort during observation. The azimuth mount allows for easy guidance of the telescope in both planes – vertical and horizontal.
