Bresser Messier 127/1200 Refractor Hexafoc EXOS-2

Bresser Telescope AC 127/1200 AR-127L Messier Hexafoc EXOS-2 is a classic long refractor that excels in contrast and detail. With 127 mm aperture and 1200 mm focal length, this telescope delivers razor-sharp, colorfast images of the moon, planets and bright deep-sky objects.

The large aperture allows enough light to see structures in Jupiter's cloud bands, distinguish the Cassini separation in Saturn's rings and even observe the polar caps of Mars. Tracking the moon's terminator, the dividing line between light and dark, is also a visual spectacle with this telescope.

The Hexafoc 2.5″ focuser offers wide, smooth focusing and is prepared for optional 1:10 fine adjustment. This makes it suitable for photographic applications or use with filters and camera adapters.

The EXOS-2 mount is extremely stable, equipped with dual radial ball bearings in both axes and capable of supporting payloads of up to 12 kg. Offering smooth tracking and accurate balance, the mount provides an excellent foundation for both visual observation and a first foray into astrophotography.
