Omegon Newton 76\/700 AZ-1: the most affordable reflector telescope with a complete set<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Omegon Newton 76\/700 AZ-1<\/strong> The cheapest way to start with a Newtonian telescope on a tripod: 76mm aperture, 700mm focal length (f\/9.2), and an alt-azimuth mount that you operate as you see fit. Unpack, set up, and look at the Moon within five minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Newtonian reflector works with mirrors instead of lenses: large aperture for little money and a color-aberration-free image. Occasional collimation (aligning mirrors) is part of it; that can be done in a few minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Three eyepieces, Barlow, and erect image prism<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

With the H 20 mm and H 12.5 mm eyepieces, you observe at 35x and 56x: the working range for the Moon, planets, and overview. The 2x Barlow doubles this to 70x and 112x. The SR 4 mm eyepiece promises 175x on paper, but practically, the limit for this aperture is around 150x; save that eyepiece for very steady nights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 1.5x erecting lens turns the image upright for daytime nature observation, and the 5x24 finder scope helps with aiming.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

AZ-1: Aligning without technique<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Up, down, left, right: the azimuthal mount moves exactly as you intuitively aim. No alignment, no counterweights. This makes it a great first telescope for children and their parents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
