The Tecnosky 60APO is a fantastic, ultra portable scope ideal for travel observing and imaging. It features a 60mm doublet objective with an FPL-53 Super ED element providing excellent control of false colour and yielding sharp, high contrast views and images. Its compact dimensions of only 230mm with the dew shield retracted make it at ideal travel scope.
Featuring a 2" rack and pinion focuser with finder mounting point, the 60APO is easiliy capable of holding a large DSLR camera when fitted with the optional field corrector. The clever mounting shoe is angled so it will provide a mounting point under the focuser. This helps to offset the negaitve weight bias of the small objective compared to the focuser with a camera mounted.
With a weight of only 1.5kg, the 60APO is easily supported by any travel mount.
Highly recommended!
Note: We currently only keep stock of the red version. Silver is available to order.
