The ToupTek HOPE D60 is designed as an excellent telescope for astrophotography. Unlike bulky reflecting telescopes, this compact Planar APO refractor combines portability with a professional five-element optical system, minimizing chromatic aberration and delivering diffraction-limited clarity.
With its fast f/4.66 focal ratio and built-in field flattener, the HOPE D60 is a true astrograph, providing wide, flat images without the need for additional accessories. A dual-speed focuser and versatile threaded connections make setup easy for newcomers, while giving advanced users precise control for capturing galaxies, nebulae, and star fields.
The HOPE D60 combines beginner-friendly simplicity with professional performance, making it a telescope that grows with you throughout your astronomy journey.
