Description

The Bresser Messier AR-102s/600 EXOS-1/EQ4 is a high quality short focus achromatic refractor ably mounted on the excellent Exos-1 German equatorial mount and tripod.   This is a very good choice for those who want an excellent starter scope, or as an upgrade from a beginner's telescope.  This telescope is a maintainence free, no fuss instrument, excelling at widefield deep sky observations, but also providing pleasing views of the Moon and brighter planets too.  It comes complete with the ultra-stable, yet highly portable Exos-1 mount and accessories such as a 1.25" star diagonal, 26mm Bresser Plossl eyepiece and 6x30 finderscope.  The tube is supported on the mount via tube rings, including a carry handle (with piggyback camera platform) and a Vixen profile dovetail for quick mounting the the equatorial head.

NEW - now including a high-quality aperture Solar-filter for safe observation of sunspots, eclipses and planet transits. Great telescope for night and solar observation.

Ambitious beginners and advanced observers alike will see the brightest objects outside our solar system with the Messier AR-102. Watch details in the Great Orion Nebula from the astonishing distance of 1500 lightyears (14.200.000.000.000 km)! The rock-solid mount provides relaxed views even at high magnifications; rigidity and usability are setting new standards in this price range. Due to the sophisticated mount you can even start taking pictures of the moon with this telescope; scanning the lunar terminator is simply a pleasure. You will never give the BRESSER Messier AR-102S away voluntarily.
