Its refractor design also ensures:
Excellent contrast and sharpness
No central obstruction
No mirror maintenance or collimation required
Reliable long-term performance
The supplied AZ3 deluxe mount offers smooth and precise movement in both altitude and azimuth axes. Slow motion control cables allow accurate tracking of celestial objects, making observation easier and more enjoyable.
