Sky-Watcher Starquest-90MC 90mm Maksutov-Cassegrain
The compact but powerful Starquest-90MC Maksutov-Cassegrain telescope is ideal for observing double stars, bright planets, and the surface detail of the Moon. Its high-resolution, long focal length optical system is multi-coated to maximise contrast and image sharpness.
The mount features a high-quality clutch system, precision 122 gear-tooth/360° gearing on both axes and excellent stability. Its maximum payload is 3kg.
The mount, when polar aligned and used in equatorial mode, enables you to easily track objects as they move across the night sky with its smoothly operated slow-motion control cables. Alternatively, the mount can simply be used in Alt-Azimuth mode, making it an ideal and versatile mounting for beginners.
Supplied complete with Equatorial/Alt-Azimuth Mount and adjustable aluminium tripod.
