BRESSER Messier MC-100/1400 EXOS-2/EQ5

NEW: Now includes a high-quality lens solar filter for safe viewing of sunspots, eclipses, and planetary transits. A high quality telescope for night and solar observation.

High stability and outstanding optics characterize the BRESSER Messier MC-100 telescope. The 100mm aperture already allows you to observe smaller objects in the vastness of space. The high stability of the EXOS-2 mount allows for very relaxed observations and supports early attempts at astrophotography.

This telescope is specially designed for the moon, planets, and smaller planetary nebulae or globular star clusters. Due to the long focal length, high magnifications can be achieved even with long focal length eyepieces. With the two flexible axes of the EXOS-2 mount, objects can be easily and conveniently tracked manually.
