Mounted on your own mount, it becomes a specialist for the Moon, planets, and double stars, and during the day with the zenith prism, also for nature observation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"32267\" src=\"https:\/\/www.telescoop.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Bresser-MC-100-1400-Telescoop-Maksutov-Messier-OTA-1.jpg\" alt=\"Bresser MC 100\/1400 optical tube with integrated Hexafoc focuser and Vixen-Style tube rings\" class=\"wp-image-32267\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8d39b2df wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.telescoop.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Bresser-MC-100-1400-Telescoop-Maksutov-Messier-OTA-3.jpg\" alt=\"Bresser MC 100\/1400 close-up of the 1.25\u2033 Hexafoc focuser and SP 26 mm eyepiece\" class=\"wp-image-32268\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Maintenance-free Maksutov optics<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The meniscus lens corrects aberrations almost completely: no chromatic aberration, small obstruction, high contrast. With the 26mm eyepiece, you observe at 54x; consider around 200x as the maximum (f\/14). Collimation is rarely needed. Allow for 30 to 45 minutes of cool-down time for the sharpest image.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Which mount fits this?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The light, short tube rests calmly on virtually any mount: the Bresser EXOS-1\/EQ-4 mount with tripod (\u20ac379) is generously sized, and a sturdy azimuthal mount with a Vixen clamp also works well visually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Included<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Maksutov optics 100\/1400<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>SP 26 mm Super Pl\u00f6ssl eyepiece (1.25 inch)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>90 degree zenith prism<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Red dot viewfinder<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Vixen-Style Split Rings<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Featured accessories<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.telescoop.nl\/en\/bresser-eyepiece-plossl-pl-10mm-125\/\">Bresser Pl\u00f6ssl 10 mm eyepiece<\/a> (140x, 29 euros) is the core magnification.
