Omegon Maksutov - excellent contrast for observing the Moon and planets

This Maksutov telescope is an 'expert telescope' for lunar and planetary observing. This telescope design boasts excellent contrast with a sharp image. This telescope can show you masses of detail in lunar craters or in the cloud bands and features of the planets.

The advantages in a nutshell

  • Maksutov telescope - compact and lightweight design
  • suitable for astronomy or nature-watching
  • optimal for smaller mounts
  • suitable for taking on trips
  • GP prism rail for super-fast mounting


Always a perfect image


The Maksutov system could not be more brilliant -a compact telescope, but with an extremely long focal length. It is easy to get an excellent image at high magnification, even using cheap and simple eyepieces - an advantage sadly lacking with many short focal length telescopes.

The success of Dimitri Maksutov
When the optical engineer Dmitri Maksutov invented the Maksutov telescope in 1942, he could not have imagined that it would become such a success story. The success of this ingenious design still continues even more than 70 years after its invention. Good designs withstand the test of time. See for yourself just how good this Maksutov telescope is.

What you can observe with a Maksutov telescope?

  • the Moon with its thousands of craters
  • the gas giants Jupiter and Saturn
  • the phases of Venus
  • polar caps and dark regions on Mars
  • binary stars, such as the Albireo system
  • nature - mountains, wildlife, birds, etc.

Fond of travelling? - there is always space in your luggage for it

Whether by car or plane - this telescope can accompany you anywhere on Earth. The fact that the optical system is short is a great advantage - it means you can take it with you into the mountains or desert, where the view of the night sky is unparalleled.

Dovetail rail - simply attach to a mount and you're ready to go

The telescope OTA attaches easily to your mount. You do not need any tube clamps - a GP format prism mount is already firmly attached to the OTA.

Finder shoe - suitable for most finder scopes

The Omegon Maksutov comes equipped with a finder scope mounting that will take most of the finder scopes available. This includes Omegon, Celestron, Skywatcher, Vixen and other finder scopes. Decide for yourself - would you prefer an LED finder or optical finder? Slide it in and you're ready to go!
