Including tube rings and a carrying bag, this is a serious travel scope, a wide-field binocular on an existing mount, or a reliable guide scope alongside a large telescope.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The achromatic doublet lens with multi-coating combines two types of glass to reduce chromatic aberration. At high magnification, a thin color fringe remains visible around bright objects; this is characteristic of this type of lens and does not interfere with normal use.<\/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-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.telescoop.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Omegon-Telescoop-AC-90-500-OTA-2.jpg\" alt=\"Omegon AC 90\/500 OTA refractor tube with tube rings\" 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\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.telescoop.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Omegon-Telescoop-AC-90-500-OTA-3.jpg\" alt=\"The 2-inch Crayford focuser of the Omegon AC 90\/500 OTA\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2-inch Crayford: smooth and heavy-duty<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Crayford focuser operates backlash-free and also supports heavy 2-inch wide-angle eyepieces. This allows you to get the maximum field of view out of the short focal length: entire star fields at a glance. The 1.25\/2-inch adapter is included.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sharp up to about 80x to 100x; above that, the f\/5.6 achromat shows color fringing. For wide-field use and as a guide scope, that is not an objection at all.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Spotting scope or travel telescope<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The included tube rings fit a standard dovetail plate, allowing the tube to be mounted next to or on top of a larger telescope. In its carrying case, it is a complete travel telescope that only requires a tripod.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Included<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Achromatic Refractor 90\/500 with multicoating (optical tube only)<\/li>\n\n\n<li>2 inch Crayford focuser<\/li>\n\n\n<li>1.25\/2 inch eyepiece adapter<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Tube Rings<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Transport bag<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Featured accessories<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Omegon Titania 500 tripod (129 euros) turns it into a standing travel spotting scope. The Omegon UWA 20 mm eyepiece (59 euros) provides 25x magnification with a 66-degree wide-angle view, and an Omegon Premium Moon filter (19.90 euros) subdues the bright Moon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Never look at the sun through a telescope without a certified solar filter: this will cause permanent eye damage within a second.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">For whom yes, for whom no<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pros: advanced users looking for a wide-field OTA or guide scope with a true 2-inch focuser. Cons: those who want a complete set with a mount; the AC 90\/500 AZ-Baby Visual Set is the same optical tube as a ready-to-use setup.
