Product description

The Orion MC 150/1800 telescope

This high-quality reflector offers you highly detailed planetary observing or planetary astrophotography, as well as being a great instrument for deep-sky observing. You can really see a considerable amount of detail and, most important, enjoy high-contrast images. It collects almost 460 times as much light as the naked eye alone thanks to its 150mm aperture and weighs only 4.5kg. Despite its 1800mm focal length, this high-quality reflector has a very short tube length of just over 410mm and is therefore, thanks its Maksutov-Cassegrain design, very compact.

The advantages at a glance

  • compact, 'fast' OTA
  • suitable for astrophotography and nature watching
  • high-contrast image

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.
  • We also provide an edition of the exciting astronomy magazine, “Sterne und Weltraum” with each telescope.
