Product description

The Orion MC 90/1250 telescope:

Imagine a telescope so small that you can put it in a rucksack or use it on a table. Now imagine that this telescope can be used at the same magnification as a conventional telescope 5 times its size. You can now buy exactly this telescope! At just 26cm in length and weighing in at only 1.4kg, this Mak-Cass from Orion is ideal for taking with you anywhere, even on the plane, and you can start observing with it immediately! No matter whether you want to watch animals in the wild, explore the night sky at a holiday resort, or even if you want do some photography - this compact reflector is a delight to use. Despite its small size, it can be used at up to180X magnification, which is more than sufficient for planetary observing. This telescope is also well suited for beginners to try out.

The advantages in a nutshell:

  • compact, extremely light OTA
  • suitable for all uses
  • ideal for travel

It not only matters which telescope you buy but also where you buy it. Our additional services:

  • We are a leading telescope dealer and know the devices we sell. Our customer service team will gladly help you after your purchase if you have problems with assembly or operation.
  • We provide a copy of the 80-page Telescope ABC beginners handbook with every telescope.

Our expert comment:

Maksutov telescopes have their own thread, which is different to the SC thread. This means that an additional Adapter is required. Using this, then makes the extensive range of accessories for Schmidt-Cassegrain telescopes available for use.
