Omegon 70/900 EQ-1 Telescope
The Omegon 70/900 EQ-1 is a telescope designed for anyone taking their first steps in astronomy. You can assemble it, align it, and start observing the Moon, planets and stars within minutes - no prior experience required.
More light, sharper views
The 70 mm lens gathers up to 100 times more light than the naked eye - and 36% more than the standard entry-level 60 mm telescope. The result is higher resolution, greater maximum magnification, and a noticeably brighter image. Saturn, Jupiter, Mars and the Moon all come through clearly.
Focusing is handled by a rack-and-pinion focuser with a lever for fine, stable adjustment. Once you find your focus, it stays locked throughout the session. The standard 1.25″ focuser accepts a wide range of eyepieces, so you can upgrade or experiment as your skills grow.
EQ-1 equatorial mount - track objects with ease
The EQ-1 equatorial mount lets you align precisely with Polaris. You can adjust right ascension to match your observing location and latitude. From there, moving along the hour angle and declination axes is all you need to find and follow any object in the field of view.
A counterweight keeps the optical tube balanced. The telescope holds its position firmly, without unwanted drift or wobble.
