Opticon Constellation 675x80 mm telescope

Constellation is the latest and most technically advanced telescope in Opticon's portfolio. High-quality lenses, durable materials, ergonomic design and precision mechanisms all guarantee successful observations. The maximum theoretical magnification is as high as 675x, and a dedicated Barlow lens allows you to triple the range of magnifications obtained with three interchangeable eyepieces. Within the range of this equipment are all the planets of the solar system, and dozens of asteroids, comets, nebulae and galaxies.

This equipment is recommended for both beginners and advanced astronomy enthusiasts. With it you will conduct observations of variable stars, Mars, Saturn's rings, and the phases of Venus. Discovering the mysteries of the universe is great fun for the whole family. The set includes three astronomical eyepieces, as well as a dedicated Barlow lens that allows you to triple the magnification range. The instrument is equipped with a so-called German mount with parallactic head and precision movement knobs. Combined with the spotting scope, they make it easier to find and track objects in the sky.

The scopes in this series are also great for observing ground targets - admiring the landscape, peeping at birds, tracking aircraft at cruising altitudes.

Unlike many cheaper models, the Constellation is equipped with a full-size steel tripod, ensuring the best stability of the set and, consequently, observing comfort. The telescope has a universal Dovetail rail - all components are compatible with professional standards. So it is possible to expand the instrument with additional accessories.

Along with the telescope you will receive everything you need to enter the fascinating world of astronomy: sky maps, computer programs, practical guides, a documentary film in HD on DVD.
