A telescope from the mid-range segment. The weakest part of the set is the tripod, which is unstable (unless you add some weight). Vertical adjustment is still tolerable, but horizontal adjustment causes a lot of problems. Poorly fitting parts make it difficult to set up the telescope for observation. The finder requires readjustment every time. If someone only looks at the specs, the declared magnification is 350x, but in practice, you see the moon for a few seconds, then you need to re-aim, and the tripod tends to make this harder rather than easier. Every adjustment, even a minimal one, causes you to lose the object from the field of view. Focusing leaves much to be desired, and with the 4mm eyepiece, it is practically impossible.
Astronomical telescope with a 76 mm diameter lens, designed for beginner observers, allows you to familiarize yourself with the basic objects of the night sky. It allows you to observe Saturn's rings, transits of Jupiter's moons or see the phases of Venus.
The maximum magnification is 262x in the factory configuration, and a Barlow lens dedicated to this model allows for twice the magnification.
A replaceable contrast filter dedicated to Moon observation improves the image quality during full moon. It allows you to see more details like craters, mountains and seas.
The telescope is equipped with a standard Rack&Pinion 1.25" type eyepiece focuser.
