The kit includes optical accessories that allow to start observing right away

3 eyepieces provide you with an opportunity to quickly choose optimal magnification for exploring different astronomy objects, while a diagonal mirror helps observing terrestrial objects. The telescope transmits an image flipped upside down. The diagonal mirror corrects it and brings the image back to its ordinary way. A 5x optical finderscope helps to find objects in the sky.

Adjustable tripod with accessory tray

The telescope is mounted on a durable aluminum tripod with adjustable height. It reliably stands even on rough surfaces, does not swing in strong wind, holding the telescope with a mount and counterweight. An accessory tray is easily installed on a tripod (included in the kit).
