About this product
Model: starbase_80
Part Number: TASTK08000
The Starbase 80 Telescope and Mount package is manufactured in Japan for (not by) Takahashi.
Takahashi provides this traditional, relatively affordable, good-quality grab-and-go achromatic refractor on a portable, easy-to-use alt-azimuth mount.
The 80mm F10 optics provide sharp, high contrast views, particularly when used with the included Orthoscopic eyepieces.
The portable alt-azimuth mount provides a stable platform with smooth, slow motions.
Includes a decent quality Rack & Pinion focuser with a 1.25" prism diagonal and two Orthoscopic eyepieces.
