These telescopes have all glass components,
coated optics and smooth functioning mounts, with the added benefit of slow
motion controls on the mount for easy adjustments. The Firstscope 70 telescope
tubes are glossy black aluminum.
Standard Features on both models:
Both Firstscope 70 models are powerful optical instruments that have 100 times
the light gathering ability of the naked eye. This ability allows the Firstscope
70 to deliver images 37% brighter than those produced by a 60mm refractor
telescope. The objective lens is designed to yield the finest images available
in this class of optical instrument. The optical tubes are glossy black aluminum
and the accessories are all made of glass with metal construction, to ensure
good image quality
Firstscope
70EQ Features:
The German equatorial mount features setting circles and slow motion controls on
the R.A. and DEC axes. These controls will enhance your viewing experience by
simplifying both locating and tracking objects. When you're looking for a
telescope offering a bit more versatility and control than the altazimuth
models, these are the telescopes to consider.
When used for astronomical viewing, these
telescopes yield breathtaking views of the moon, Saturn with its ring structure,
Jupiter and its belts, and hundreds of deep-sky objects including: galaxies,
nebulae and star clusters. Add an optional solar filter and you can observe
activity on the sun. For terrestrial use, you can enjoy views from your own
backyard or take your telescope out in the field to enjoy the natural
environment, up close.
