The Stellar 60\/800 AZ is an achromatic refractor (lens telescope with a lens of two elements) with a 60 mm aperture and 800 mm focal brandlength (f\/13.3) on an alt-azimuthal mount with an aluminum tripod. You focus by hand, without counterweight and without power, and the set weighs 2.3 kg. The box includes an objective-sun filter for sunspots during the day and a smartphone adapter for a moon photo. At f\/13.3, the color edge around the moon and planets is thin, and the 20 mm eyepiece already gives 40x magnification.

What do you see through the Stellar 60\/800?<\/h2>\n\n\n

Moon: at 40x with the 20 mm eyepiece, the entire Moon with craters, mountain ranges and the shadow line; with the 3x Barlow on the 20 mm eyepiece (120x), small craters on the bottom of the large ones. Jupiter: the four large moons, which change place from evening to evening, and at 120x the two dark main bands. Saturn: the ring detached from the planet, small. Venus: the disk-shaped figure as a small circle or half-disk. Double stars like Albireo (yellow and blue) and Mizar in the Great Bear: two separate star points. Deep-sky: the bright core of the Pleiades, the Orion Nebula as a gray spot with the Trapezium stars, globular clusters like M13 as a fuzzy round spot and, from a dark spot, the Andromedan system as a long, glowing line. Nebulae and galaxies are seen with the eye in gray tones, not in color. From a city or village with streetlights, the Moon, planets, double stars and star clusters remain; nebulae and galaxies require a dark spot. Sun: with the supplied filter before the tube, sunspots with a dark core are visible. The highest meaningful magnification is about twice the opening, so about 120x; that is also the combination of the 20 mm eyepiece with the Barlow. The 4 mm eyepiece (200x) is above that and gives a dark, unstable image. What you can expect per object is stated in What do you see through a telescope?<\/a>, Jupiter through a telescope<\/a>, Venus through a telescope<\/a> and The Moon through a telescope<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n
