  The advantages and features of the TS Starscope 1507 Newtonian telescope:

   Aperture 150 mm – enough light for thousands of nebulae, galaxies and star clusters
   Focal length only 750 mm for more speed and a better overview in the sky
   No additional lenses which often deteriorate the image
   Optical finder for easy locating the objects
   Primary and secondary mirror can be collimated. The collimation is very stable, even after transporting the telescope the image will be fine.
   1.25″ focuser for all standard 1.25″ eyepieces and filters
   Upgradable for astrophotography with drive and camera adapter
   In a few steps, the telescope can be disassembled into easily transportable parts. The telescope as a whole weighs approximately 15 kg
   An extra from TS – especially high-quality Plössl eyepieces (4-element) with 25 mm and 6.5 mm
   Comes with 2x Barlow lens and moon filter

  The optics of the TS 150/750mm Starscope:

  If the conditions are right, the neatly manufactured and adjustable optics provide more than 200x magnification. You can achieve this already with standard equipment which is included in the scope of delivery. Theoretically, even more than 200x is possible. A further advantage of the fast optics is the large true field of view. Many objects outside of the solar system are large, almost as large as the full moon, but very dim. Insert the 20 mm Plössl eyepiece and you get a bright, clear view of these fascinating celestial objects.

  Do you want to take photographs?

  In the accessories section, we offer suitable accessories for creating charming moon photographs or make a video of a splendid sunrise. You can even optain images of the sun by using a solar filter for the object lens.

  The equatorial mount EQ3-1:

  The system mount with which the TS Newtonian is equipped alreadily offers the possibility for polar alignment. Here, the right ascenion axis is pointed exactly to the north celestial pole which is located close to the pole star. The big advantage: you can track all celestial objects by fine adjusting of only one axis. You can even add a motor drive to this axis, so the object stays in the middle of the field of the eyepiece, allowing relaxed observing or photography.

  The mount is stable and low-vibration. It is attached to an aluminium tripod which can be extended from 71 to 121 cm. Thus the telescope can adapt to your body height, it “grows” with you.
