TeleVue TV-60 \u2013 60\/360 Apochromatic Refractor<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The TeleVue TV-60<\/strong> is a particularly compact apochromatic refractor for the advanced user who wants to combine maximum portability with high-quality optics. With a 60mm aperture and a 360mm focal length (f\/6), this is a true travel-APO that you can effortlessly take to dark observing sites or use for daytime nature observation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With a tube length of only about 25 cm, this telescope easily fits into a backpack or carry-on luggage. The all-metal construction and refined finish clearly indicate that this is not an entry-level model, but a serious instrument in an extremely compact size.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"TeleVue<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Broad image and surprisingly versatile<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to its short focal length, the TV-60 offers a wide field of view of approximately 4.3\u00b0, depending on the eyepiece used. Large star fields and open star clusters are beautifully shown, with a natural color rendering<\/strong> and high contrast thanks to the apochromatic doublet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Moon is displayed sharply and clearly, with distinct structures at appropriate magnifications. For planets, basic details are visible under good conditions, but don't expect extensive detail with a 60 mm aperture. The strength of this telescope lies primarily in low to medium magnifications and wide field-of-view views.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For deep-sky objects, bright objects are visible under a dark sky, but faint nebulae and galaxies are not the primary domain of this size.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ultralight and refined focus<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The TV-60 is equipped with a precise helical focuser combined with a slide focuser for coarse adjustment. This ensures a smooth and precise focusing<\/strong>, where the eyepiece doesn't rotate - convenient for both visual observation and photography.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With its low weight, this telescope is excellent for combining with a light alt-azimuth mount or photo tripod (with suitable adapter). This is an OTA (optical tube assembly) without a mount and without GoTo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The included black protective cover ensures that you can transport the telescope safely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
