The Zoomion telescope 70 mm AZ (Pioneer 70 AZ) is a lightweight and versatile telescope for beginners who want to observe both the moon and distant terrestrial objects. Thanks to its compact design and included table tripod, this model is ideal for spontaneous observations, at home or on the road.
The achromatic 70 mm lens consists of two optical glass elements that together provide a bright, sharp image with natural colors. The short focal length of 360 mm makes this telescope particularly suitable for wide-angle observations. The moon appears large and contrasty, with numerous craters and shadow edges. Even at dusk, the image remains remarkably bright - perfect for distant animals or landscapes.
The azimuthal mount (AZ-1) is intuitive to use: simply move up, down, left or right like a photo tripod. The 20 mm and 6 mm eyepieces allow you to vary from low to higher magnifications, while the 3× Barlow lens magnifies the image further. The 1.5× reversing lens and 45° amici prism also provide an upright image, ideal for daytime use.
Thanks to its low weight of only 2.5 kg, you can easily take the telescope with you on vacation. It even fits in carry-on luggage and is ready to use in minutes. Everything you need for your first observations is already included in the box - a perfect choice for beginners and young enthusiasts.
Application
The Zoomion telescope 70 mm AZ is suitable for:
- Bright observations of the moon and its craters
- Basic observations of planets such as Jupiter and Saturn
- Daytime nature observation (upright image)
- Vacation and mobile usage
Not suitable for deep-sky objects or astrophotography; the short focal length is intended for wide, bright images rather than high magnifications.
