Bresser Classic 60/900 AZ-1 Telescope
The Bresser Classic 60/900 AZ-1 is an achromatic refractor telescope for beginners that delivers a clear and rewarding view of the night sky. With a 60mm lens and a 900mm focal length, it produces sharp, high-contrast images of celestial objects. The classic long focal length design suits planetary and lunar observation particularly well. The kit includes everything you need to start observing straight away - eyepieces, a finderscope, a smartphone adapter, a star map and astronomy software.
What can you see?
The Bresser Classic 60/900 AZ-1 is especially well suited to objects within our Solar System. You will clearly see craters and seas on the Moon, the rings of Saturn and the cloud belts of Jupiter. The 60mm lens combined with the long focal length gives a useful magnification range even with the standard eyepieces supplied in the kit. The included star map helps you find and identify stars, constellations and planets with ease.
Optics
The optical system uses achromatic lens optics, which minimise chromatic aberration and produce natural colour rendering. The 60mm lens diameter and 900mm focal length give a focal ratio of f/15 - ideal for observing planets and the Moon. This combination delivers high contrast and natural sharpness even at higher magnifications. The complete assembly is lightweight, making it easy to carry the telescope to darker locations away from light pollution.
AZ-1 mount and tripod
The AZ-1 altazimuth mount lets you point the telescope quickly and intuitively at any object in the sky. Both horizontal and vertical movement is smooth and precise, so even a complete beginner can operate it without difficulty. The sturdy aluminium tripod keeps the assembly stable and reduces vibrations that could disrupt your view. The tripod height is adjustable, so the telescope is comfortable for both adults and children.
Smartphone astrophotography
The kit includes a smartphone adapter. Simply attach your phone to the eyepiece and take photos or record video directly through the telescope. This technique is called afocal photography and produces impressive images of the Moon and bright planets. You can share your photos and videos with friends and family, or use them as motivation to explore the sky further. The included astronomy app helps you plan observing sessions and identify objects in real time.
Complete beginner's kit
The Bresser Classic 60/900 AZ-1 is a complete starter kit for anyone taking their first steps in astronomy. You do not need to buy any additional accessories straight away. The telescope suits both children and adults who want to discover the beauty of the night sky.
The kit includes:
- Two eyepieces with different magnifications
- Finderscope
- Smartphone adapter
- Star map
