Orion XT6 Classic Dobsonian Telescope & Beginner Barlow Kit Reviews

Orion XT6 Classic Dobsonian Telescope & Beginner Barlow Kit


Orion XT6 Classic Dobsonian Telescope & Beginner Barlow Kit
  • Big 6" aperture optics + point-and-view ease of use = out-of-this-world value
  • 150mm aperture and 1200mm focal length (f/8.0) Dobsonian reflector telescope provides ample light grasp and resolving power for jaw-dropping views of the Moon, planets, and bright deep-sky objects
  • Included Orion 2x Shorty Barlow Lens doubles the magnification of virtually any 1.25" eyepiece, adding magnification options to your telescope
  • The included Beginning Stargazers Toolkit provides plentiful reference material for nighttime observing and a handy red LED light to see them with
  • An ideal telescope and accessory kit for the interested beginner who wants great performance at an amazing value

Ample light grasp...Check. Portable...Check. Stable mount...Check. Quick setup and take-down...Check. Easy to operate...Check. Affordable...Check. As you run through the checklist of attributes you've heard are important in a good beginner's telescope, you realize that the Orion SkyQuest XT6 Classic Dobsonian Telescope meets all the criteria - in spades. Astronomy magazine called it "an excellent entry-level Dobsonian telescope for an adult." It's a telescope that opens up limitless observing possibilities. With its big 150mm diameter parabolic primary mirror the SkyQuest XT6 Classic Dobsonian Telescope collects nearly 80% more light than a 4.5-inch reflector, rendering brighter images and greater detail in deep-sky nebulas and star clusters. And the 1200mm focal length gives the telescope ample power to zoom in on subtle planetary and lunar features. The 45-inch-long enameled-steel optical tube glides with silky smoothness on the cabinet-quality Dobsonian wood base. You just point the telescope and view! Orion-engineered CorrecTension springs keep the tube balanced to perfection and allow the whole unit to be carried together by the handle on the base. The XT6 is outfitted with a 1.25-inch rack-and-pinion focuser, an EZ Finder II reflex sight, collimation cap, and a 25mm Sirius Plössl telescope eyepiece. The mirror is center-marked for precise collimation.

Orion 2" 2x Barlow Lens

Orion 2" 2x Barlow Lens


Orion 2
  • Increase the power of any 2" eyepiece by a factor of 2x - for example: makes a 30mm eyepiece perform like a 15mm eyepiece
  • Especially good for high-power lunar and planetary observing with big 2" telescope eyepieces
  • Also includes a handy step-down 1.25" adapter for use with 1.25" eyepieces
  • Features 30mm clear aperture
  • Requires 54mm (2 1/8") additional back focus. Threaded for use with 2" filters

In keeping with our tradition of offering top-nothc astronomy gear at great prices, Orion is proud to offer our 2" diameter, 2x Barlow Lens at a very affordable price. Like other 2x Barlow lenses, this big 2" model provides a 2-time power-boost to any 2" eyepiece so you can enjoy double the magnification of any 2" ocular. Just insert this Barlow into a telescope's 2" focuser and then insert any 2" eyepiece into the Barlow to double the power of the eyepiece. This big Barlow has a huge 2"-diameter that's optimized to work with virtually all 2" telescope eyepieces. The 2" 2x Barlow is the perfect complement to 2" eyepieces such as the Orion DeepView and Q70 lines; and it works well with other brands of 2" eyepieces too. An included 1.25" adapter ensures all your 1.25" eyepieces will work with the 2" 2x Barlow Lens as well. While 2" eyepiece users are often trying to stretch the limits of their telescopes to oobtain wider, low power fields of view, there are many times when more power is needed to tease out detail from a small deep sky object or planet. Orion's 2" 2x Barlow Lens features multi-coated lenses for high contrast and glare reduction. It's even threaded for use with big 2" filters to further enhance your astronomical adventures.
