The short focal length of 460 mm makes it compact enough for traveling, but powerful enough to show the Milky Way, open star clusters and the Moon in clear detail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.telescoop.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Bresser-AC-102-460-AR-102-Telescoop-Messier-Hexafoc-EXOS-2-1.jpg\" alt=\"Bresser AC 102\/460 AR-102 telescope mounted on EXOS-2 with counterweight and short tube in diagonal position\" class=\"wp-image-31967\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Wide image, lots of details<\/strong><br>With its wide aperture of 102 mm, this telescope captures a lot of light. That means bright images, even for faint deep-sky objects. You can see large structures in the sky at a glance - from the Pleiades to the Orion Nebula - without having to move or focus every time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Precise focusing with Hexafoc<\/strong><br>The robust <strong>Hexafoc Focuser<\/strong> with 64 mm free aperture ensures that you always focus precisely. It runs smoothly and stably, so you can easily switch from the Moon to a distant nebula. And want even more control? Then add a <strong>1:10 micro fine adjustment<\/strong> Add for razor-sharp focus in photography.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Stable EXOS-2 mount<\/strong><br>The sturdy <strong>EXOS-2 mount<\/strong> keeps the telescope stable even at higher magnifications. Thanks to the double ball bearings, it moves smoothly, without play. This keeps your image steady and allows you to observe for a long time without vibrations. With optional motors, you can even track automatically - useful if you want to photograph objects or keep them in focus for longer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.telescoop.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Bresser-AC-102-460-AR-102-Telescoop-Messier-Hexafoc-EXOS-2-3.jpg\" alt=\"Bresser AC 102\/460 AR-102 on EXOS-2 fully mounted on steel tripod with accessory tray\" class=\"wp-image-31969\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Ready to use immediately<\/strong><br>The telescope comes with everything you need to get started right away: a 26 mm eyepiece, a 6\u00d730 viewfinder, a zenith mirror, solar filter and eyepiece adapter.
