From their diffraction-limited FPL53 apochromatic doublet lens to their solid and precise dual-speed rack and pinion focusers, you get more than you imagined with one of these little gems. The 60 mm refractor boasts 360 mm of focal length for an incredibly wide field of view, perfect for capturing large nebulae at their best. The 72 mm refractor offers a bit more light-gathering power as well as resolution and slightly more focal length at 430 mm. Also included in the deal is an adjustable, full frame field flattener that is threaded to accept 2" filters. These compact lightweight telescopes will feel right at home on a mid-sized equatorial mount, and the refractors can handle nearly any DSLR, CMOS, or CCD camera.
Also available are a number of visual accessories like a 2" diagonal or an optical or red dot finder scope, should you desire to visit faraway clusters or nebulae with an eyepiece instead of a camera. In any event, you will be sure to be pleased with the great quality of these incredibly versatile refracting scopes!
