Levenhuk Blitz 76 BASE Telescope
The Levenhuk Blitz 76 BASE Newtonian reflector is designed for novice astronomers and allows for a wide range of observations. It is best suited for studying deep space, especially globular and open clusters. You can also see the Moon and most of the planets in the solar system through it. The telescope comes with all the necessary accessories and is perfect for a gift. The optical design uses lenses and mirrors. The optics are made of glass and equipped with an anti-reflective coating. The image transmitted by the telescope is clear and contrasting, free from distortion. Conveniently, the package includes three eyepieces and a Barlow lens - thanks to them, you can use many different magnifications when making observations. The mount is azimuth, so it is very easy to control the telescope - just like a regular spotting scope. There is a microscrew on the vertical axis, with which you can aim more accurately at objects. The tripod is made of aluminum, complemented by a shelf for accessories. If necessary, the height of the tripod can be adjusted.
