ZenithStar 103 F6.9 imaging APO with innovative Bahtinov Mask Cover

This beautiful scope is everything you always wanted in a refractor, starting from extreme sharpness for clear details, and APO color correction. It has all the benefits of the ZenithStar family at a price that is truly unbelievable.

William Optics ZS103 Features

  • F/6.9 FPL53 Doublet air-spaced APO, in CNC machined ultra-high precision lens cell
  • F5.5 with x0.8 Flattener.
  • 2.5”R&P Ultra robust focuser with 1:10 dual speed: a treat to use during astrophotography. No image shifting! Heavy duty: perfect for your accessories.


Despite its 103mm objective, the scope is still very compact and solid. Many airlines will accept it as carry-on luggage! Perfect size for serious observations of deep sky objects and planets.

  • 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.
