The Skywatcher N 76/700 AZ-1 is an ideal first telescope when you want to explore the night sky. You set it up quickly, use it easily, and see immediate results. Perfect for your first look at the moon, planets and bright nebulae.

Starting simple
With its 76 mm aperture, the telescope captures enough light to show the moon sharply and clearly. You can see craters, shadows and the broken edges as if they were close by. Jupiter, Saturn and the brightest star clusters also come into surprisingly beautiful focus. You simply point the telescope by hand. No complicated systems. No alignment. Just point, focus and watch.

Light, portable and ready quickly
The AZ-1 mount moves smoothly in all directions, making it easy to track an object. Just turn the lever slightly and you'll keep the planet or moon neatly in view. The aluminum tripod is light, sturdy and height adjustable - useful if you are observing from your garden, balcony or a dark spot just outside the city. The whole set is compact and fits easily in the car.
Everything you need is included
You get two eyepieces, a 2x Barlow and a viewfinder, so you can get started right away. The 25mm eyepiece gives you a wide overview, ideal for finding objects. With the 10mm eyepiece you zoom in further and see more detail. The Barlow doubles your magnification when you need that little extra.
Perfect for your first steps
You choose this telescope when you would like an affordable, easy-to-use and reliable entry-level model. You want to see the moon in detail. You want to spot the rings of Saturn. You want to get started without the hassle. The Skywatcher N 76/700 AZ-1 makes that possible.
