Product description

More about the series Astromaster...

This set includes a Moon filter and a smartphone holder in addition to the popular beginner's telescope Celestron Telescope AC 70/900 Astromaster 70 AZ. With these accessories you will be able to take fascinating pictures of the Moon. Since the telescope is also suitable for nature observation, you can also use your smartphone to take photos through the telescope during the day.

This instrument is a very nice, extremely well made beginner's telescope. The high quality of the optical elements employed offers an unusually sharp, high-contrast image for this class of telescope. The permanently mounted red dot finder allows you to quickly and easily find object you wish to observe. The 1.25" rack and pinion focuser lets you smoothly adjust the focus. The telescope is ideal for the natural watching and terrestrial observing as well as for astronomical applications such as lunar and planetary observing. The OTA fixes onto the mount using the usual dovetail rail. The instrument can be completely assembled within a few minutes, without any specialist knowledge and without needing any tools.

Included in delivery:

  • Celestron AC 70/900 OTA with 70 mm aperture and 900mm focal length
  • 20mm and 10mm (1.25") eyepieces
  • red dot finder
  • 90° Amici prism (1.25")
  • dovetail mounting rail

The Celestron AZ mount:

This altazimuth mount is sufficient for telescopes of up to 3kg total weight. A handle is used to move the mount by hand and align and fix it on any object. The height-adjustable, completely preassembled tripod has tubular 1.25" diameter steel legs and provides a stable and vibration-free platform for mount and telescope. You can keep all your important accessories on the tray provided and so always have them close at hand.

Included with the mount:


  • AZ altazimuth mount
  • adjustable tubular steel tripod
  • accessory tray
