Orion StarMax 90 Mak-Cass Telescope & Make It Zoom Kit


Orion StarMax 90 Mak-Cass Telescope & Make It Zoom Kit
  • This complete telescope and accessory bundle makes it easy for beginners to enjoy multiple magnifications right out of the box
  • Long 1250mm focal length Maksutov-Cassegrain telescope with 90mm aperture provides plenty of magnification ability in a compact, tabletop package
  • Included Orion Zooom! eyepiece has a substantial focal length range of 7.2mm to 21.5mm so you can vary the magnification without swapping out eyepieces
  • Double your magnification options with the included Shorty 2x Barlow Lens which doubles the power of any 1.25" eyepiece it's used with
  • The useful Beginning Stargazer's Toolkit provides helpful reference materials and Starry Night astronomy software is also included

Whoever coined the phrase "big things come in small packages", would have definitely applied that expression to our new StarMax 90 TableTop. This ultra-compact Mak-Cass gives surprisingly big views for an instrument of its modest size, making it an elegant first telescope or a great grab-and-go second telescope! The long, 1250mm (f/13.8) focal length gives the StarMax 90 TableTop some serious magnifying power - the included 25mm and 10mm 1.25-inch Super 3-element eyepieces yield powers of 50x and 125x, respectively. It collects over 25% more light than its GoScope 80 cousin, and up to 225% more light than a 60mm refractor telescope. So you'll be able to enjoy planetary delights such as lunar landscapes, Saturn's rings and Jupiter's moons. As you scan the Milky Way, you'll also be able to pull in some open and globular star clusters, as well as a nebula or two. The tube assembly of the StarMax 90mm TableTop Telescope is attached to a stable swivel base, via a quick-release dovetail mount with adjustable altitude tension. The tube can easily be removed from the base and mounted on an optional photo tripod. The small swivel base itself can also be mounted on a camera tripod with a 3/8-inch screw. A red-dot view finder, internal focuser (which moves the primary lens back and forth) and included 90-degree star diagonal round out the features of this compact, yet surprisingly capable, Mak Cass telescope.
