Bresser AC 90\/500 - Compact power with large field of view<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Bresser AC 90\/500<\/strong> is an ideal telescope for anyone who wants to enjoy wide and clear views of the night sky. With its large aperture of 90 mm, it captures a surprising amount of light, allowing star clusters and nebulae to be clearly visible. The short focal length of 500 mm provides a wide field of view - perfect for exploring the Milky Way or open star clusters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Light, portable and ready to use immediately<\/strong>
The AC 90\/500 is compact and easy to carry. Within minutes, it is ready to use. Thanks to the included EQ-3 mount, you can smoothly track what you're viewing, keeping objects beautifully in focus. The slow-motion buttons give you control over every move, without vibration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For beginners and curious explorers alike<\/strong>
You don't need any experience to get started with this telescope. Everything you need is in the box: a 26 mm eyepiece, 6\u00d730 viewfinder and a 90\u00b0 zenith prism. Point it at the moon and you'll immediately see sharp craters and mountain ranges. Or move to an open cluster of stars and experience the depth of space with bright contrast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sturdy mount for stable images<\/strong>
The robust EQ-3 mount provides stability while observing. Counterweights keep the telescope balanced, which is especially useful at higher magnifications. The aluminum tripod is height adjustable and sturdy enough for hours of observation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What to expect<\/strong>
\u2713 Moon: detailed craters, shadows and edges.
\u2713 Planets: bright discs and clear contrasts.
\u2713 Deep-sky: open star clusters and bright nebulae visible in dark skies.
\u2713 Ease of use: lightweight, portable and ready to use within minutes.
\u2717 Sun: safe to use only with a special sunscreen.
\u2717 Astrophotography: limited, mainly focused on visual observation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
