Description
The large 8" aperture draws in copious amounts of light to make detailed observations of the Moon and planets, and still reach out past our solar system to discover dim deep-sky subjects. Its f/5.9 focal ratio and Crayford focuser makes this an ideal choice for imaging. Its relatively fast focal ratio enables devices to capture images in less time than slower scopes, while the unique focusing mechanism employed in the Crayford-style gives it the ability to achieve tack-sharp focusing with zero back-lash that rack-and-pinion focusers generally are unable to. This 2" focuser will accept larger eyepieces so users can enjoy a truly immersive visual experience, and a 1.25" adapter is included to enable the use of the more common size eyepieces and accessories.Very easy to use.
NOTE!!!!! Only one eyepiece will come with this, the Celestron Ultima Duo 17mm 1.25/2" barrel. Telescope gives wonderful images!
The only reason I am selling this is because I am 6'6" and have to lift it onto a raised table to use it. I have a bad back and knees.
I can meet you with 75 miles of Huntington, WV along Interstate 64
